I Was There Résumé

I Was There: Gigs That Changed the World Mark Paytress

"I Was There" recreates the sights, smells and sounds of the 20th century's most talked about moments in the history of live music. The first fully integrated, illustrative companion to these legendary events, "I Was There" reflects the scale and scope of the stadiums (immense to intimate), the vibe (chaotic to psychedelic) and the people (blessed-out hippies, to punks and star-struck teens). First-hand accounts embellish the beautiful pictures of the gigs, in the form of articles and interviews with key witnesses, including Pink Floyd as well as Petula Clark and Woody Woodmansey, the drummer for David Bowie, who describes the night when the "death" of Ziggy Stardust shook the rock world. Warhol's entourage, Gong and Rick Wakeman all contribute as well as Siouxsie Sioux and countless photographers and fans.
