Star-studded show recorded at the Big Sur Folk Festival, Big Sur, California, September 13th and 14th, 1969. Joan Baez, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Joni Mitchell, John Sebastian, and others.

Older songs like βOh Happy Day,β βRise And Shine,β βAll Godβs Children,β and βSwing Down, Sweet Chariotβ meet Joni Mitchellβs βWoodstock,β Joan Baezβs βSweet Sir Galahad,β βBob Dylanβs βI Shall Be Released,β CSNYβs βDown By The River,β and many more of the now-classic songs of what was then called the βnew rock.β The scene is notably intimate and - aside from one fanβs dustup with Stephen Stills - mellow, with many rare, close-up moments with the stars.
