A Trip Back To Woodstock 1969

This Saturday marks the 40th anniversary of one of the largest and most celebrated moments in music history: Woodstock. And to honor the music festival that defined a generation, we put together a playlist of the artists that called the little-rural town in upstate New York home for that four-day weekend. So, sit back and enjoy songs from The Who, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and the legendary Jimi Hendrix. Sorry, bosses. This Friday is all about rock.
