“Peace Will Come (According To Plan)” #32 9/19/1970

The current single from Melanie. After the negativity of the Altamont festival, many large scale multi-day rock concerts scheduled for 1970 were cancelled, sometimes at the last minute. One such was the Powder Ridge festival in Connecticut, which was cancelled yet 30,000 people (plus a whole bunch of hallucinogenic drug dealers) showed up anyway. Melanie was the only name performer to go ahead and play there. Powder Ridge wound up being a total disaster.
