Subject: RE: 'Lincoln' Folk festival July 1971
We are going to see James Taylor next month at The Royal Albert Hall; this has brought back fond memories, as I remember going to the Lincoln Folk Festival, but had forgotten what year it was. 1971- 43 years ago- I can hardly believe it! One of the highlights for me was The Byrds- fantastic stuff!
I remember a shower of rain in the afternoon, and some people went to shelter. We were able to get virtually right up to the stage, meaning I was a matter of feet away when James Taylor came on. Of all the concerts I have been to, James Taylor's set stands out- relaxed, fantastic vocally, and a wonderful guitarist.
Great to read all the other comments here- it has brought it all to life again!
