It’s CTA at the Texas International Pop Festival a few weeks after Woodstock in August 1969. I believe there’s a 10 CD boot available of the festival, though most of the performances are just snippets and fragments. But there are a few nice performances like Janis, Led Zeppelin and CTA. The sound is pretty nice, I boosted the sound level up a bit.
Sample included and a .jpg of the photo – the best resolution I could do. Feel free to use the photo for your personal use (I still have the original and will be framed asap !!). Merry Christmas everyone !!

Here’s some snippets from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_International_Pop_Festival:
The Texas International Pop Festival was a music festival held at Lewisville, Texas, on Labor Day weekend, August 30 to September 1, 1969. It occurred two weeks after Woodstock. The site for the event was the newly opened Dallas International Motor Speedway, located on the east side of Interstate Highway 35E, across from the Round Grove Road intersection.[1]
The Festival began at 4:00 p.m. each day. Grand Funk Railroad opened all three days and played through the afternoon heat till the 4:00 p.m. opening band. BB King played all three nights and told the same jokes and stories, perhaps thinking he had a different 150,000 person crowd for each show.[9]
