Wow, Sweetwater!? They were indeed the very first "band" to play at Woodstock after it was opened by, I think in this order, Ravi Shankar and Richie Havens. Was Mahesh Maharesh Yogi there too? Something about breathing exercises ...
Sweetwater was a great band with cello and, I vaguely remember, flute as well as the usual keys strings drums etc. I don't recall whether they had any harmonica playing with them. I always thought they were one of the best bands there, certainly the most under-rated.
Thanks for the memory!

. . . My friend Alex Del Zoppo (keyboards) was one of
the founding members of Sweetwater. They were one of the opening acts at Woodstock.
