Comments: Great show! Although PT says he hated Woodstock and doesn't think
The Who played very well, they are indeed hailed as the great stars of Woodstock.
Unfortunately, all of the songs appear to "cut off" abruptly at end and this flaw has
not been corrected on any of the CD issues with the exception of Live In Woodstock 1969 (Once Upon A Time In Woodstock) (CD) (Hallmark 012). The song Naked
Eye was not played at the festival, rather, the chords that were to make up this song
were. This was played at the end of the show as PT does a guitar improvisation
followed by smashing his Gibson SG Special and tossing it out into the audience.
Also, the hippie political activist Abbie Hoffman decided to walk on stage during The
Who's performance and PT whacked him with his guitar and spouted out a few
chosen expletives and carried on with the show.
