This concert also features narration by actors Peter Fonda and Will Geer and is produced by 4-Time Emmy Award Winner Jim Brown.

This star-studded event was a fundraiser for the California Chapter of The Committee to Combat Huntington’s Disease (now known as the Hereditary Disease Foundation), as Woody died of Huntington’s disease in 1967.
