Canned Heat turned to audience favorites after their Woodstock gig. In 1969 they had already added psychedelic elements to their blues influenced songs and their Boogie Rock kept the people dancing. They hit the stage on Saturday, the 16th at about 7.30 pm. The gig took place during sunset which occurred at 7.56 pm. The sky was cloudy so it was a little bit darker than usual. The set list was wisely chosen and featured their greatest hits: “Going Up the Country” and “On the Road Again”, the last one as the encore. The song “Woodstock Boogie” is basically an almost 30 minute jam, also including a drum solo. (on their album Boogie With Canned Heat (1968) the song is called “Fried Hockey Boogie”) Members included~ Larry “The Mole” Taylor ~ bass guitar Henry “Sunflower” Vestine ~ guitar Bob “The Bear” Hite ~ co-founder, co-lead vocalist Alan “The Blind Owl” Wilson ~ co-founder, leader, co-lead singer Adolpo “Fito” de la Parra ~ drums
