1969 was a capstone year in San Francisco's rock music history, which saw live performances by Janis Joplin; the Grateful Dead; Jefferson Airplane; the Doors; the Who; Crosby, Stills and Nash; Santana; Bo Diddley; and others. After the Rolling Stones were denied the use of Golden Gate Park, their concert was held at the Altamont Speedway near Livermore. One person was murdered during the show, subsequently labeled by
Rolling Stone
magazine as "rock and roll's all-time worst day."
