I was never a huge Tubes fan... until I saw them live a few years ago. They give great show! Saw them again recently and probably will again.

Neglect in the art world—which includes publishing and music—neglect of the past is very common. FWIW, people hate CDs and digital streaming, but honestly many items would sit stagnant and decay if not handled for reissues and such.

Anyway… This is a great interview!

Saw Canned Heat at the Fillmore East before they played Woodstock. They were terrific!

JakeGould:

@JIMD2019: The best way to store data on hard drives is to copy data to multiple drives and store them in different locations.

Or if you have the resources, a RAID array is the best way to go. And that said, good luck getting a budget to do either in many places.
Avatar 9:51pm
JIMD2019:

Thanks man! I’ll lookup the raid thing. my teacher was like “if it doesn’t exist in 4 places, it doesn’t exist” luckily I haven’t started backups of anything important yet

EFD/Andy -- I have one platinum record from my days in the early 1990s as an MD at an active rock station. The fact that it's for Candlebox doesn't make me want to leave it far behind.

How were so many so great at Woodstock? It’s like there was a groove throughout. Or I could be high.

What I got from the NY Times article was that the industry didn't have the chance / foresight to use today's technology to remaster the lost master tapes due to the fire.
  10:04pm
JakeGould:

@Ciggy: The industry is notoriously cheap. Not just music but pretty much all industries. They are focused on pushing out current product and archives and “ephemera” are just that.

Nobody at the top of any of the major record labels cares about how to deal with old merch past tossing them in a warehouse somewhere.

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

So Universal acquires several other labels thru takeovers over a great period - & allows these priceless irreplaceable works to be destroyed
- but also covers it up - & continues to obscure the facts about what's lost when clarity is most needed...

Mailman Tom:

What about the 2nd stage at Woodstock? Many performers played under that tent, including Tiny Tim.
  10:13pm
Carmichael:

I’ve seen the Tubes at least 20 times. They are a big NorCal band who are on every multi bill in town. You live here, you’re gonna see ‘em.

It matters because at that point in time we had an opportunity ...a small window of opportunity to change the world ...caring, sharing Peace Love Brotherhood concern for the ecology and the economy... that was all important to anybody who considered themselves a thinking human being who was looking forward to a brighter future!!!...simple!!!

PJ:

I missed most of the conversation, so forgive me if this question has been covered: out of all the music festivals that took place from, say, 1967 to 1972, why did Woodstock get so much acclaim that it became synonymous with hippiedom and the “youth movement”? Was it the movie, or the Joni Mitchell song, or something else?
