Music history

I'm over 2020 and want to escape - so Monterey Pop was my choice tonight. No regrets. It acted as the perfect form of escapism and time machine back to the 1960s. You almost start to feel a bit high just watching. It captures the concert experience perfectly and this pivotal moment in time.

I would've happily enjoyed a longer film, with full sets. As it was, it seemed like a mini taster of the event, that just meandered around. Featured a bit too much sitar at the end.

My highlights were Mamas and Papas, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Simon and Garfunkel.

And damn, 60s women were something else. So beautiful. In fact, all the people here seemed beautiful, happy and free-spirited. Just what my soul needed after a long day.

Anecdotes
Although they declined the invitation to perform because they had sworn off touring permanently, all four of The Beatles were on the festival's board of directors. George Harrison had helped recommend Ravi Shankar, and Paul McCartney had pushed for the organizers to sign Jimi Hendrix, who was unknown in the United States at the time.

Gaffes
In the opening credits, a hand-drawn title says "IN ORDER OF PEFORMANCE", misspelling the word "PERFORMANCE".

Citations
Female Fan: I think its gonna be like Easter and Christmas and New Year's and your Birthday all together, you know! Hearing all the different bands, you know. It's just, like, I've heard a lot of them; but, all at the same time - it's going to be too much. I mean, the vibrations are just going to be floating everywhere!

Versions alternatives
The 1997 video version includes as an appendix The Who's performance of "A Quick One While He's Away."
