The Oval, close to the city centre and with a capacity of 31,000, was the ideal venue.
America’s infectious folky acoustic songs were ideal fodder for a festival, however
they were largely unheard of in ’71. Their self-titled debut was released earlier that year, however “Horse With No Name” wasn’t on it and in fact was released later in November ’71.
The line-up that day was:
11:00–11:30 Cochise
11:45–12:30 Greaseband
12:45–01:30 Lindisfarne
01:45–02:30 Quintessence
02:45–03:30 Mott The Hoople
03:45–04:15 America
04:20–04:45 Eugene Wallis
04:50–05:45 Atomic Rooster
06:00–07:00 The Faces
07:45–09:25 The Who
Released for the first time on collectible 12” 45 RPM vinyl with a CD version and comprehensive sleeve notes.
