Trivia:
Smokey Robinson was a member of the board of directors, however, he and the Miracles did not perform. In fact, there was going to be a slot open for Motown acts, but Berry Gordy refused to let any of his label's acts appear at the festival.

This is a classic documentary of 60s rock, captured live before all the hype and hoopla of hippiedom sank most of these acts (and many others). The Monterey Pop Festival kicked off the Summer of Love and remains the prime event of that epoch. The film should be seen by anyone who claims a passing interest in "Woodstock" or "the 60s." I give it 10 stars.
