Chrysalis

The roots of Chrysalis stretch back to a tiny flat in West London in 1967, when former university social secretaries, Chris Wright and Terry Ellis, linked their flair for managing and booking bands to form the Ellis Wright Agency. After trying to release their bands' records via other companies, they decided to start their own label.

In 1968, they signed a licensing deal with Island Records with the proviso that if their acts achieved an agreed number of hits, they would be awarded a label of their own. Within a year, this tally was reached and Chrysalis Records was born.

Over the years, Chrysalis went through various ownership changes. In 1985, Chris Wright bought out Terry Ellis and later sold the label to EMI in 1991. EMI was then acquired by Universal Music Group in 2012 before selling the Parlophone Label Group (including Chrysalis) to Warner Music Group in 2013.

Ten Years After's Woodstock performance was, up until that time, their biggest live triumph. Appearing at the festival in August 1969, in front of a 500,000 strong audience, the festival was a landmark moment in musical history, featuring Jimi Hendrix, Crosby, Stills and Nash, The Who, Joe Cocker, Jefferson Airplane, Sly and The Family Stone and many more.

The band played an extraordinary set, including a blistering performance of the anthemic "I'm Going Home" which became a highlight of the award-winning documentary movie Woodstock: 3 Days Of Peace And Music.

This new release marks the first standalone release of the performance, newly restored and featuring fresh mixes from the original 2" multitrack tapes, with new liner notes by Chris Welch.
