 | | Woodstock was conceived by four young partners—Michael Lang, then the manager of a rock band; Artie Kornfeld, an executive at Capitol Records; and two venture capitalists, John Roberts and Joel Rosenman. |  | | Jimi Hendrix, the final act of the festival, played a freeform solo guitar rendition of “The Star Spangled Banner.” |  | | Their original plan had been to build a recording studio in Woodstock, a small town in the Catskill Mountains that had become a rock center when musician Bob Dylan and a rock group called The Band settled there. |
