Description:
Feter:I was thinking ..three weeks of love and passion
for the art music and memory of this and what reflected
to us with all the sinpiration to our music .MJers approved
alot of integrities and sight of giving and sharing that
rarely to see on real world .is why i love you so people !
Then I thought a loving hymn would be a great ending for all
this as a message to be said to the world with Love Peace
and Music .. I love you McJammers YOU ROCK ...!

Roxy: When I found out about this closing Woodstock hymn, I knew I
wanted to join in with the fun. The MacJammers who were so kind as to
lend their time and singing talent to this one are, in alphabetical
order: B.Flat,Bud, Dadai, Feter, Roxylee, Rschletty, and Sloparts, who is
also the stage guy at the end. Feter is, of course, the MC of the
event, and the mystery voice who says "Sweet..." is my daughter,
Carina. Many thanks to Feter, who had the brilliant idea for the
festival, and to all who have composed wonderful songs for it. I hope
we do this again next year. Peace out, you hippie freaks! :-)

Thank you Feter and all brothers and sisters &mdash 04/06/08 - 07:42:35 PM
I feel honored to be a teeny part of this magnificent Woodstock MJ festival with my little entry, and have mixed feelings to see Feter's event come to a close... however, this wonderful end-cap recording is PERFECT, getting a bunch of MJ'ers to participate in the last hymn before the rain sends everyone back home. Great singing & mixing everyone!

Feter, I just want to say thank you for creating one heck of an event... world-wide love to you man!
ttfn,
Drakonis

Hymn ... &mdash 04/06/08 - 10:22:39 PM

thank you Feter for putting on Woodstock-MJ 2008. And thank to you Roxy for the great job you did with the Hymn, the choir and getting it all mixed so well. Great job, all of you who added you voices to this.

And of course to all those that posted songs for the Woodstock-MJ even, I say Bravo. I listened to every one of them and they were all fantastic.

To all of you and all MacJammers I wish Peace and Long Happy lives

Ed

Doing the intro work and mixing this took me many hours, but to read the appreciative comments makes it all worthwhile. :-) I need to go back and listen to all the WS songs that I've missed! Thank you for the cool vox parts you sent in for this. you are a fine actor. :-)

wow &mdash 04/07/08 - 12:47:31 AM
This is surprising, roxy's voice really shines here as well as the rest. The bass vocal sounds quite fascinating. Mixed in with sound effects, the rain, putting away the mic. Wow what wonderful entertainment!

You guys added a whole lot of warmth in hearing this.
This is to me what makes macjams great, really. The production really hits home in so many levels. More of this type of thing should be done, because it is dang entertaining. A great gem amongst macjam productions. Sounds like not only a woodstock production but a macjams cultural event.

All of you should take bows!

Peace !! &mdash 04/07/08 - 12:57:14 AM
Thnx alot Bill ..Hearin your comments and words

job on mixing and digesting the whole scene ..Ed
was terriffic at the bass part ..as all the others
yes I do agree with you ..its Macjams production
and wish to hear more and more of such warm colab
happen in the near future :-)

God Bless

beautiful to hear all the voices together! I'm aglow in the sweet joy of this musical community. This is a fitting finale to these three weeks of unfettered (make that Feter'ed) creativity. Many thanks to you Feter and to Roxy for this opportunity to be a part the love-fest!

I was struggling for a new job under really bizarre circumstances, so could not give my two pence to this wonderful idea of Woodstock MJ.

This is really a matching closing hymn.

Very well done, MJ community. It will take month to discover all the great music I've missed.

Greetings from a cold and rainy (some snow, too) Germany!

Bernd

Let's do this next year again!

I am bowing to your greatness... &mdash 04/07/08 - 03:54:23 PM
You got that many people connected and harmonizing in the most intriguing way. Beautiful. And you did this by somehow, squeezing folks back in time, through wires and cables and through mid air, in enough cases, I'm sure... That means that you're practicing magic, and in a spiritually uplifting way. I think that any Jesus would be impressed w/ this fine little act.

Prolly not a good time to ask, how the hell didga pull it off...

The answer would likely shed inadequate amounts of light onto the hugeness of the talents here Maybe that's why so many of us are praising your feat...

Wonderful job! Thanks to everyone. D

I've been less active at MJ's while this woodstock festival has taken place, and have missed out on most of the contributions... my loss. I guess this hymn summs it up pretty good. It's great to hear your voices together.
It's so cool when macjammers get together like this.

This was very well put together. Nice feature with the rain in the end:)

Thanks!
