On a beautifuI June weekend in 1967, at the beginning of the Summer of Love, the first and only Monterey lnternational Pop Festival roared forward, capturing a decade's spirit and ushering in a new era of rock and roIl. Monterey featured career-making performances by Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Otis Redding, but they were just a few performers in a wildly diverse lineup that incIuded Simon and Garfunkel, the Mamas and the Papas, the Who, the Byrds, Hugh MasekeIa, and the extraordinary Ravi Shankar. With his characteristic verite styIe and a camera crew that included the Iikes of Albert MaysIes and Richard Leacock D. A. Pennebaker captured it alI, immortalizing moments that have become legend: Pete Townshend smashing his guitar, Jimi Hendrix burning his, Mama Cass being blown away by Janis Joplin's performance. The Criterion ColIection is proud to present the most comprehensive document of the Monterey InternationaI Pop FestivaI ever produced, featuring the fiIms Monterey Pop, Jimi PIays Monterey, and Shake! Otis at Monterey, aIong with every availabIe compIete performance fiImed by Pennebaker and his crew.
