Now on view in the Central Reading Room is a selection of posters and concert photos from the University Archives documenting Stony Brook’s amazing concert history and legacy. In the 1960s and ‘70s, from punk to jazz to folk, SBU played host to the biggest acts in music, including Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Lou Reed, Pink Floyd – and Blue Oyster Cult, whose manager was SBU graduate Sandy Pearlman.
