In 1968, the latest incarnation of Madison Square Garden opened in the heart of NYC.
By the 1970s, the arena was the premier showcase for music's biggest stars.

With the '00s ending and MSG's renovation scheduled to begin in 2010, we have four decades of classic concerts and one question: What's The Garden's greatest show? Each week in November, MSG will give you a chance to vote on shows from each different decade, starting with the 70’s.

40 years ago, at what Rolling Stone called "the most famous event in rock history", the original Woodstock Music & Art Fair was held in Bethel, New York. Of the 32 acts that performed during the festival, five of them, Janis Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Johnny Winter, Santana, and Sly & the Family Stone, had just recorded albums for Sony Music labels. For the first time today, the Woodstock Experience series combines those albums along with the music from their festival performance in one wonderful package.

This summer celebrates the 40th Anniversary or what Rolling Stone called "the most famous event in rock history", of the original Woodstock Music & Art Fair. In the summer of 1969, 500,000 people and 32 musical performances came together in Bethel, New York, for an event that sufused our culture, politically and socially, as much as musically.
