Wattstax
This site is a companion to a Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) P.O.V. program about "'Wattstax,' the 1973 documentary directed by Mel Stuart. In August 1972, seven years after the Watts riots, the legendary Stax recording label staged a benefit concert in Los Angeles for 90,000 people. As time went by, it became known as the Black Woodstock." Includes vintage reviews, soundtrack highlights, a filmmaker interview, and links to related information.
