The definitive guide to the past century's most talked about & mythologised live musical performances. This book recreates the sights, smells & sounds of the 20th century's most talked about & never beaten moments in the history of live music. The first fully-integrated, illustrative companion to these legendary events, I Was There reflects the scale & scope of the stadiums (immense to intimate), the vibe (chaotic to psychadelic) & the people (blissed out hippies, to punks & star-struck teens). First-hand accounts embellish the beautiful pictures of the gigs, in the form of articles & interviews with key witnesses, including The Pink Floyd as well as Petula Clark & Woody Woodmansey, the drummer for David Bowie, who describes the night when the "death" of Ziggy Stardust shook the rock world. Warhol's entourage, Gong & Rick Wakeman all contribute as well as Siouxsie Soux & countless photographers & fans. Ever wanted to know what it was really like to see the Beatles in one of their lunchtime spots in 1963 at the Cavern? Fancy stepping back to one of the first light shows by Pink Floyd in the mid-sixties? Want to relive the mud, sweat & beers of the Glastonbury festival? I Was There brings you these real live moments when important musical gatherings in 20th Century defined generations. ...
