...July 20, 1969, a man walked on the moon. Three weekends later, about a half-million people attended, or tried to attend, the Woodstock music festival - three days of peace, love and music that still stand as an emblem for all that was groovy and messy about the late '60s. In anticipation of the concert's 40th anniversary, Michael Wadleigh's Woodstock documentary was released in a director's cut on DVD and Blu-ray.

Not all of it - 40 years later and still no one can explain why Sha Na Na was on the bill - but enough so that the collective memory is founded in something real. Performing live for just the second time, at 4 a.m. no less, Crosby, Stills & Nash delivered a riveting "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes." A few hours later, Jimi Hendrix treated the last 25,000 standing...
