Kozmic Blues was performed by Janis Joplin as part of which iconic festival set?
Kozmic Blues "Kozmic Blues" is a song from Janis Joplin's "I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama!" album, her first after departing Big Brother and the Holding Company. It was a part of Joplin's set at Woodstock Festival in 1969. Although the concert as a whole is not regarded as Joplin at her best, that specific performance became very popular and was released on "The Essential Janis Joplin".
Monterey Pop Festival The Monterey International Pop Music Festival was a three-day concert event held June 16 to June 18, 1967 at the Monterey County Fairgrounds in Monterey, California. Crowd estimates for the festival have ranged from 25,000–90,000 people, who congregated in and around the festival grounds. The fairgrounds’ enclosed performance arena, where the music took place, had an approved festival capacity of 7,000, but it was estimated that 8,500 jammed into it for Saturday night’s show, with many extra attendees standing around the sides of the arena. Festival-goers who wanted to see the musical performances were required to have either an 'all-festival' ticket or a separate ticket for each of the five scheduled concert events they wanted to attend in the arena: Friday night, Saturday afternoon and night, and Sunday afternoon and night. Ticket prices varied by seating area, and ranged from $3 to $6.50 ($–, adjusted for inflation).
