GUEST,Alan Watson 'Lincoln' Folk festival July 1971 (129* d) RE: 'Lincoln' Folk festival July 1971 29 Oct 19


The first festival I ever went to... and what a line up!! Like so many others, it's the Byrds, James Taylor, Buffy and Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee (why did only two of them turn up?). We caught the train from Donny on Friday Night, camped that night and Saturday too under a huge ex-army bell tent, which no-one had an idea about erecting. I have read elsewhere that Cat Stevens (quite a star at the time) turned up and asked to play but was told, in no uncertain terms, that no pop stars were wanted on the bill!! Don't know if it's been posted before but here's a link to the Byrds playing at the festival: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfUuDTJmAOw
