  • Woodstock brought together some of the biggest stars in music. The 1969 Cubs team was composed of some of the biggest stars in baseball. With pennant fever taking Chicago by storm, the first-place Cubs recorded an album for the ages that had the whole city singing their tune.
    "Hey, Hey, Holy Mackerel - that's the anthem of my childhood without a doubt. That's where my love of this baseball team came from." -David Kaplan

    I wish I was around back then, to bad I missed out; but I became a Cubs fan in 87, so I was got to see Dawson, Sandberg and the great's that followed.

      Lucky you were not around. The pain of the collapse of the 69 team still stings today.

    1969, 1982 and 2003 heartbreakers especially 1969 I was 15 and watched the games on WGN. The year of the Miracle Mets hate them to this day!

    My very first ballgame when I was 8 was Holtzman's no hitter. I still remember it like it was yesterday. Santo's 3 run homer, Billy Williams catching Aaron's long drive to left field right amongst the ivy, the crowd rushing onto the field after the final out. What a time to be a kid and crazy about baseball!

      Unfortunately, it was all downhill after that. 8 19 69 they were in 1st Place, up by 8 1\2 games. They lost 25 out of their last 40 games. The Mets on 8 19 69 were in 3rd Place, 9 1/2 games out. They won 33 out of their last 44 games.

    5:34 John Frigo co-wrote the first song Hey, Hey, Holy Mackerel. I think he was the father of Derek Frigo the guitarist of the band Enuff Z'Nuff.

    This was a great series.
    I was born in November of ‘69, and a Cub-fan soon-after. My grandma Mae got me hooked on the cubs & the game of baseball from a very early-age.
    My team was Sandburg, Grace & Dawson; but everyone older than me always talked about the late-60’s cubs & how good they were.

    Ken Holtzman pitched another no hitter in 1971 against the Reds

    My dad took me to a half a dozen Cubs games between 1967-71. I was 13 in 1969. I remember this well. Took the EL from Evanston straight to Wrigley. A night game is on my "bucket list", but I live in Florida. :-(

    I'm wondering, would you think if "Cub Power" is the '69 Cubs' version of the "Super Bowl Shuffle"?

    Seeing the Cleon Jones catch has to hurt for Cubs (and Orioles) fans as that was the final out of the WS. Nice for Mets fans, though...

    I would rather not people talk about other things than the Cubs in these videos.

      I guess in 1969 they couldn't leave out the moon landing or Woodstock
