Taking Woodstock



Just caught this trailer for Ang Lee's next movie 'Taking Woodstock' (featuring Demetri Martin), and wanted to highlight the killer use of period songs from the '60s. First comes Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Run Through the Jungle", which is totally archetypal '60s music, but not as cliche or recognizable as their "Fortunate Son" (that seems to soundtrack an endless amount of Vietnam/1960s footage). Then to top it off, it's followed up by Jefferson Airplane's "Volunteers of America". Another great track, that isn't the stereotypical Jefferson Airplane track that people associate with the '60s (White Rabbit). Nice job changing it up!
