Join me as I unravel the tangled history of the infamous Altamont concert, where a lineup featuring Santana, Jefferson Airplane, the Flying Burrito Brothers, and the Rolling Stones played against a backdrop of pandemonium. We relive the shocking moment when Jefferson Airplane's Marty Balin was knocked out, and the surprising calm provided by the Flying Burrito Brothers amid the chaos. These moments beg for reflection on how such events shaped music history and offer lessons in event planning gone awry.
We look back at The Who Concert Tragedy in December 1979, when 11 people lost their lives trying to enter an arena.
We'll also reminisce about an electrifying U2 concert in 1984, where Bono's memorable intervention during a security scuffle added to the night's unforgettable magic. As we celebrate the 35th anniversary of Lou Reed's "New York," there's much to reflect on. This episode is a rich tapestry of music history and cultural shifts, inviting you to keep the rhythms of the past alive in today's world.
