NEW YORK (October 22, 2009)—According to the music magazine Relix, the greatest concert in the last 50 years in the U.S. was the March on Washington in 1963, which is the event at which Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his stirring "I Have A Dream" speech.
Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary and opera singer Marian Anderson performed that day.
That concert topped The Beatles performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and the Newport Folk
Festival in 1965, where Dylan first went electric.
Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock is number four, and James Brown performing in New York in
1962 for his "Live at the Apollo" album is fifth.
