During five days at the end of July 1968, a year before Woodstock, Palma could have become the setting for a festival with renowned international artists that was to be opened by Jimi Hendrix. The American musician did indeed close, a year later, at nine in the morning –on Monday, August 18– the legendary festival that brought together the spirit of the counterculture of the summer of '69 and which took place on the outskirts of New York, for more than three days and with some thirty top-tier artists.
