Two years before Woodstock — and precisely 50 years ago this weekend — the Monterey International Pop Festival created buzz about the hippie movement and kicked off what would become known as the “Summer of Love.” And, though TIME could be a little bit square sometimes, the magazine dutifully covered the news of the event, describing the atmosphere of the June 16-18, 1967, concert: While all musicians of all genres were represented, Lou Adler, the renowned Los Angeles record producer who organized the festival with singer John Phillips of The Mamas & the Papas, recently recalled how discussions about organizing the event “drifted toward the fact that rock ’n’ roll was not considered an art form in the way that jazz was,” so the concert “seemed like a validation” to fans of the genre. In retrospect, Adler says, it’s remembered as the event that made Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Otis Redding and Ravi Shankar household names.

There were complaints about the volume from as far away as Pacific Grove, six miles from the fairgrounds.”

Açık hava müzik festivalleri tarihinde önemli yeri olan ve 1967’de California’da düzenlenen Monterey Uluslararası Pop Festivali hem ilkler arasında yer alması, hem de The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Who, Ravi Shankar ve Janis Joplin gibi isimlerin Amerika’da ilk defa büyük kalabalıklara tanıtılması açısından unutulmazdı. Konserden bir ay kadar önce ilk albümü “Are You Experienced” ile güçlü bir başlangıç yapan Hendrix, ilk defa bu kadar önemli bir seyirci kitlesine seslenmiş ve 1970 yılındaki ölümüne kadar sürecek olan hızlı ve parlak sahne kariyerine mükemmel bir halka eklemeyi başarmıştı. 16-18 Haziran 1967 tarihlerinde gerçekleşen festivalin kapanış bölümünde sahne alan Jimi Hendrix’in o anlarını gösteren bir video ve fotoğraflar aşağıda.
