The Woodstock Experience: Jefferson Airplane
The studio album included here, Volunteers, was released after their Woodstock appearance but the band previewed three of the album's songs during their set; "Eskimo Blue Day," "Wooden Ships" and the forceful cry for social change, "Volunteers." The band opted not to play live what would seem to be an obvious choice from Volunteers; the lead-off track "We Can Be Together." About half of the Airplane's live set has never been released before, in fact their set is so long that part of it is tacked on to the end of the Volunteers disc. Among the seven live cuts that you can hear here for the first time are "3/5 of a Mile in 10 Seconds," "Come Back Baby" and "The House at Pooneil Corners."

Janis Joplin
I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! is the studio album included here and it too was released shortly after her Woodstock appearance. Joplin previewed most of the record during her Woodstock set though, including the album's standout track "Try (Just a Little Bit Harder)." Joplin was one of the fan favorites at Woodstock and as such most of her live set has already been released but "Raise Your Hand," "As Good as You've Been to This World" and "Can't Turn You Loose" are available here for the first time.

Santana
For all intents and purposes this superstar's career kicked off at Woodstock; his self-titled debut album came out right after the festival and he previewed everything on Santana during his live set except for "Shades of Time" and "Treat." The guitarist replaces those songs here with his set closer, "Fried Neck Bones and Some Home Fries." The only previously unheard live cut here is a version of the massive hit "Evil Ways."

Sly and the Family Stone
The studio album included in the package is Stand! and Sly played most of its tracks at Woodstock. Oddly enough most of this material has until now been unissued; amongst the funky pop numbers now available here live are "Sing a Simple Song," "Everyday People," "Love City," "Stand!," "M'Lady" and "You Can Make It If You Try." At one point during the set Stone is heard complaining about equipment problems but whatever he's referring to doesn't affect the recorded sound.
