| Originally released as a limited edition triple LP, the Glastonbury Fayre Festival album has been an extremely rare item for many years, bootlegged or re-released in abridged versions of this particularly impressive 1972 live festival. Now the original album is back with this edition of 2CDs + 1 DVD, packaged exactly like the original release. The importance of this document lies in the artist roster: an incredible number of undisputed gurus of underground psychedelia are present here in an incredibly memorable series of concerts. The CDs feature The Grateful Dead, Brinsley Schwarz, Mighty Baby, Marc Bolan, Pete Townshend, David Bowie, Hawkwind, Skin Alley, Daevid Allen & Gong, Pink Fairies, and The Edgar Broughton Band. The DVD includes performances by Terry Reid, Fairport Convention, Family, Melanie, Arthur Brown, Quintessence and Traffic. |
