Very interesting distinction you make although I disagree to the extent that 
Woodstock happened in 1969 I believe. Those who appeared werent starting out 
as musicians when they appeared there. They had been playing for years. The 
music started in 1964-66. Monterrey was 1967. the haight was in 66. Free 
Speech Movement etc. Massive anti-viet nam movement with all the bands 
playing at the rallies. TONS preceeded the 70's. The 70's was the beginning 
of the "mass marketing" of the music and surely much evolved during that 
decade BUT Joni was definitely a 60's person. Shes older than me and I am. 
The 70's was when all the johnny come lately's discovered the music and FM 
radio evolved from underground to mainstream. The last Beatles concert was at 
Candlestick Park in the late MID 60's. Just for the record. marcel deste
