After John B. Sebastian's band The Lovin' Spoonful disbanded, he continued on solo ways. Luckily for the people he also played at Woodstock a five song set. Originally he wasn't scheduled[1] but he was probably the best "filler" that Woodstock had.
He appeared on stage on Saturday, the 2nd day of Woodstock, at about 3:30 pm.

[edit] Details
Mellow set of five songs, interpreted heartily and playful with a right sense of humour.
Before the encore "Younger Generation", John Sebastian made this funny comment: "Just love everybody all around ya and clean up a little garbage on your way out and everything gonna be alright."
[edit] Miscellaneous
Gentle, caring John Sebastian suggested to the crowd that if anybody was concerned about the brown acid, perhaps they should take only half a hit.
[edit] Availability
The three disc box set Faithful Virtue: The Reprise Recordings from John Sebastian includes the whole Woodstock performance in superior quality.
