It was Labor Day weekend, 1969, two
weeks after Woodstock,
and thousands of hippies and lovers of peace and
music converged
on the small town of Lewisville, just north of Dallas, at
the
Texas Pop Festival
to
be and to see and to hear the music of
B.B.King,
Canned Heat, Chicago,
Delaney & Bonnie & Friends,
Freddie
King, Grand Funk Railroad, Herbie
Mann,
Incredible String Band, James
Cotton Blues Band, Janis Joplin,
Johnny
Winter, Led Zeppelin, Nazz,
The Quarry, Rotary Connection,
Sam
& Dave, Santana, Shiva's
Headband, Sly
& the Family Stone,
Space Opera, Spirit,
Sweetwater, Ten Years
After and Tony Joe White!
Now,
after all these years, a book is in the making!
Yes, I'm still working on it!
