Subject: RE: 'Lincoln' Folk festival July 1971
Hi Guys greeting from South Africa.
I remember this festivel very well.I was 19.
I was living in West Hartlepool and we whent to the local pub and there was a bus half full going to a festival.
Two thirds pissed thought why not.So me and my might got on the bus.
It was about 11 on the Friday Night.
By the time the bus got to Lincoln it was more than full.Picked up people on the way
Rember Ralph Mactell Strrets of London, The Birds were out of this world also liked tom Paxton.
However the best was Buffy St Marie. She dressed in full Indian Dress she was stunning.
When she started to sinf soldier blue the whols crowed went mad.
Remeber the long drop toilets food stalls which were few and far between.
I rember there was a music magazine there as well not NME it was another magazine.
