Wow... 54 years ago today the Monterey Pop Festival kicked off for a three day event featuring acts like The Association, Eric Burdon & The Animals, The Grateful Dead and Jimi Hendrix. The Beatles were invited but, by that time, a lot of their music was simply too intricate to perform live. At Paul McCartney's suggestion, The Who were booked, instead, and the appearance help settle them into the American mainstream...
