Woodstock Festival Photos from 1969: From Eccentric Spectators to Spellbinding Performances from Iconic Singers

Johnny Winter Gives the Crowd What They Want

The letter J has a particular something about it. Most artists at Woodstock had names that started with that letter, so we can’t be the only ones who noticed this. The legendary blues musician Johnny Winter was part of the lineup and deserved to be in it.

He performed on day three at around midnight. Winter played “Mama Talk to Your Daughter,” “Tell the Truth,” and “You Done Lost Your Good Thing Now/Mean Mistreater” for the yelling crowd. This image almost perfectly captures how much his contagious enthusiasm radiated throughout the audience as he delivered one of his most unforgettable performances.
