Calendar Letters: That was the year that was
Regarding "1968: Pop Goes Big" [April 22]: My fellow college students and I were invited to a free afternoon concert at San Fernando Valley State College in Northridge (now Cal State Northridge) in April 1968. We did not know who would perform. The first performer was a raspy female singer named Janis Joplin with her band the Holding Company. She knocked us dead with her voice and hot band. After a break, it was announced that a new British band named Cream would perform. Never had I heard three musicians have such a powerful sound. Cream, with Jack Bruce, Eric Clapton and Ginger Baker, became my favorite band for the next 40 years. It was a special day in college one would never forget.
