Excellent concert of CSNY recorded about a month after their Woodstock set
That blows their Woodstock appearance away. Awesome performance from Stills and Young.

Regarding the audio quality of the recording we are on a very good audience recording.
This concert has an important historical value being one of the first ever recordings of CSNY.

A musical documentary of the 1969 Big Sur Folk Festival, filmed in a chaotic style reminiscent of Woodstock. It features performances by Joan Baez, John Sebastian, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and the Combs Sisters. Some of the finest folk singers and musicians in the world positioned themselves on the edge of some of America's most glorious scenery for a farewell to summer and a celebration of nonviolence in mid-September. It was the sixth annual Big Sur Folk Festival. The festival, held on the tree-shaded lawns of Esalen, also differed from other recent celebrations in that here the "scene" did not eclipse the music, but merely served as a complement.
According to its producers, Nancy Carlen and Paula Kates, Big Sur was designed as a "performers festival," an opportunity for artists to come together after a hectic summer on the festival circuit for some peace and solitude. Crosby Stills Nash and Young played the final set, as on Saturday, repeatedly bringing the thinning crowd to it's feet. For a finale - with the audience pushed forward around the pool, closer to the performers now - everyone at the festival reprised "Oh Happy Day".
The film includes early footage of Neil Young, who had recently appeared at Woodstock with Crosby, Stills & Nash, but refused to be filmed. Here, fortified by session drummer Dallas Taylor and Motown bassist Greg Reeves, CSNY perform Young's "Sea of Madness" and "Down by the River". Perhaps the film's most famous scene is an altercation between Stephen Stills and a heckler.
50 years ago today: The Big Sur Folk Festival. The festival was founded in 1964 by Nancy Carlen, who was attending Boston University when she met Joan Baez. "Any time you found Joan Baez, Richard and Mimi Fariña, and me in the same place there had to be singing, so instead of meetings and lectures, sing we did, in the sulphur baths, on the lawns, even during meals sitting at long wooden tables in the lodge."
The 1969 concert had more than 10,000 in attendance, and featured these musicians:
Joan Baez
Joni Mitchell
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
John Sebastian
Johanna Demetrakas
Dorothy Morrison & the Edwin Hawkins Singers
Mimi Fariña
Julie Payne
Ruthann Friedman
Carol Ann Cisneros
The Comb Sisters

A documentary film, Celebration at Big Sur, was made about the September 14 and 15, 1969 Big Sur festival, which featured many performers who had played at Woodstock a few weeks earlier from August 15–18.
