BZ Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Ok, This quest (if answered) will say who knows their music !! I have been searching for years to ID this song - no luck yet. It appears in the Woodstock (Main) movie during the part where it HAS rained and an interview with organizers is going on, as well as a Helicopter dropping clothes on the crowd. About the song: All i know is it sounds alot like the Riff from Frampton's "Do you feel like i do", BUT it is on flute . Framptons song was not out at that time (1969) as far as i know. Also, i am guessing it may not be one of the attending bands, and is instead a Record Player (which i know they used there) playing tracks over PA. Could be anyone - but i have nerever heard the song anywhere else. IF YOU can name it - you rock, you are the ALL time winner of music trivia Again , i dont know. i know it is not Sweetwater, i dont think it is Keef Hartley, may be Bert Sommer, who knows-anyone ?? cheers, BZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Pa Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 sounds like canned heats "gone up the country" but I'll find out for sure when I get home and dig through my old stuff. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim in Pa Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 BTW BZ, Framptons "Do you feel like we do" was released in 1976. J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BZ Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Thanks all....its not Goin Up the Country . Be sure to see the specific scene (above-with Helicopter dropping flowers and clothes / Artie and Mike being interviewed) , its not part of the soundtrack per se, its more like background ambiance at the concert - if need i can get a scene-time code on the DVD, or see here on YouTube: in the 2nd half of this clip - or i can get the orig DVD trk. This is not a well known song, one will have to be a collector to call it , prob - heck i am and i dont know it ! It sounds like Sweetwaters' style, but i have all Sweetwater and i dont know this tune. The search goes on... BTW - any fans be sure to check out Bert Sommers on YouTube @ Woodstock (i'd gladly pay for official copies of it - but they dont exist in USA) - i cant belive they left him out of film - Like Mountain, etc....Awesome !!

bluesboy Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 The flute sounds like a little ditty in the film score of The Omega Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Pa Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) Thats what I thought to Blues. I have the original release of the movie, and that is not in the sound track of that version. Jim Edited February 22, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Everytime I hear a flute I think of Jethro Tull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BZ Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Thanks all - its in the Original Woodstock .... If you have the Woodstock DVD, go to > Side A > Chapter 25 "What its all about" ....at about (timecode) 1:37:00 into scene, you'll hear it in background of scene - it goes on about 1-2 to about 1:41:00 minutes. Its hard to hear-you have to ignore foreground and listen a few times over and over. There is some guitar that sounds like "Do You Feel.." (Frampton) and Flute. Reminds me of Sweetwater or Its a Beautiful Day... but who knows - anyone? -Trivia: the people in right frame 'doin it' later sued Warner Bros for having it in film - go figure !
