Album reviews with TONY BURKE, January 8 2024
Reviews of Incident At A Free Festival, Hot House: The Complete Jazz At Massey Hall Recordings, and Les Cousins: Soundtrack Of Soho’s Legendary Folk & Blues Club

Incident at a free festival
Ace Records

BOB STANLEY and Pete Wiggs of the band St. Etienne pay homage to the rock acts who populated Britain’s rock festivals in the early 1970s. 

You probably went to some — Bickershaw (on a coal tip near Wigan), Krumlin (rainy Yorkshire moors); Deeply Dale (Bury), Weeley (Clacton) and Buxton (freezing Derbyshire moors).
