[Steno1066]

i'm now 15 and I live in Kralingen, across from the Kralingse plas, where this festival was ...sometimes I see pictures of Stamping Ground and it makes me so freaking sad that I wasn't there...

[TheBirdboots]

Ik heb deze grope nog altijd op een verzamellp staan, Stamping Ground, echt opmerkelijk in die tijd zeker...!

[surfraptor]

Was there, great memories!



[BusStopBoxer]

An amazing performance from Santana, every bit as good as their Woodstock set (if not better).

[stonerbudkap]

I'd give my right nut to play in the original Santana! Awesome!!!!!!!

[MyRickyz]

Excuse me, somebody knows if there is a rare footage or early appearances of Al Stewart before his Year of the Cat era? yes, besides this one of course...

[TheOldHacker]

Strangely, there is a brief glimpse of Britney "Butthead" Spears at 4:53.

[Hannibalde2de]

Santana, they're all having a musical orgasm

[waylo4526]

[PFRIAS90]

ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!SANTANA

[MisterCrash84]

My dad was there :P He was 19 at the time.

[youvebeenthunderstru]

By the way, when he sings "But his eyes are the eyes of an eagle" it sounds a bit like "Somewhere In England, 1915" from his Beach Full of Shells album.

[NilezII]

This is Santana firing on all cylinders! Remember when bands sounded like THEMSELVES?

[Leibo07]

This fest was the actual beginning of official Dutch 'gedoogbeleid'( tolerance policy) concerning the possession/dealing of/in soft drugs. The undercover cops made a kind of study of it, right there and then.

So it was Rotterdam, not A'dam, mind you ...

[youvebeenthunderstru]

Al Stewart... sweeeeeeet.

[kutpeen]

Maybe there is gonna be a new festival in 2009. Its gonna be a very big festival but only for young people (15-25 years)

[anzoh53]

That is age discrimination!!! I was there 38 years ago I would want to go again.

[MisterCrash84]

My dad was there too. He lived just 10 minutes walking from there.

[sonic540]

Awesome, thanks for sharing this video.

[daytripper92]

My dad was there the greatest festival at the continent from that time, it costed 40 gulden (18 dollar) but like woodstock thousands of people just broke through the fance witch causted a 1.000.000 gulden debt i have spoken with the organiser of this festival he live s in my street kralingen, rotterdam i m 15 years old and i really wish i was there at kralingen popfestival or monterey pop or woodstock

[GLOatYT]

Hey daytripper, the (3-day!) tickets were 35 guilders, not 40 (I still got the ticket to prove it). Btw, funny you mention your age, 'cos I was 15 when I was there!

[daytripper92]

i dont know for shure  but i really thougth it was 40 well it s not that important but there s a museum of kralingen popfestival !!! i don t know where youre from but its free and its located in kralingen the founder of the festival witch i mentiond before is the boss of it all i really recomend it to you it s not a big museum but still a good one i really wish i could say what you said it must have been quite an experience

[DirkjeA]

I too was 15 and still have the ticket, 35 guilders indeed. I told my parents I was going to stay with a girlfriend, as she told hers she stayed with me. No need to tell our parents found out and we got grounded when we got back home after 3 hazy happy swinging days, but hey, that was worth it. These happy memories stay with you the rest of your life.

[chables1]

its all about santana

[GLOatYT]

Sure it is, chables1, it's part of a series. See all eleven of them and get the whole picture!

[chables1]

haha no man, i meant it like saying hes the man. will you ever forgive me?

[GLOatYT]

Oops. Will YOU forgive ME?

[bhodybored]

snds good, must be before my time 'cause i dont know it

[tpatgod2007]

sometimes goes under the nickname of the dutch woodstock

[GLOatYT]

The most common nickname is Kralingen, but officially it was called the Holland Pop Festival. And bhodybored, its Holland's most legendary pop/rock festival (although not the first).

[VOLVO440]

When I was younger I used to play in this park. Never knowing all these rocklegends had played there. Thanks for posting this, I love it !

[GLOatYT]

@VOLVO440: I used to play there befóre the festival. Imagine that! My whole world was shaken!

[jebbertalk]

really great, amazing. i was born in the wrong time when i see this

[YoginiBear]

This is the first time I see Al Stewart (of "Year of the Cat" fame)sing "Zero She Flies". Excellent!
