Various-60s & 70s Treworgey Tree Fayre UK tour programme
|
Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
The coaches & camper vans were still reeling from the loss of the 'real' Glastonbury by the erection of castle walls & the enforcing of ticket checks, along with the enthusiastic 'protecting & serving' that was done to shut down the annual Stonehenge free festival before barbed wire served to block off the ancient monument from everybody not prepared to pay to see something that had been free for two and a half thousand years.
What to do ?
In the spirit of anarchy and in order to fulfil the need for a car park, a small farm between Looe & Liskeard in Cornwall was chosen to be the spot for the Treworgey Tree Fayre, an old style GBMF where pretty much anything went for both the audience and the bands involved.
This was no tinpot affair, however, even though it has been described as the worst organised Festival in history by people that were obviously not young enough to remember the chaos of the Seventies. Bands appearing boasted the usual suspects like the mighty Hawks, Nik Turner, Ozric Tentacles & The Levellers, but there were some less obvious like Misty In Roots, Loop, Climax Blues Band & Poison Girls. I wonder how many people remember all of the closing acts on the second stage on Saturday ?
Contrary to the usual counter-culture methodology, although ticket prices were sort of optional, they had a real printed program & T-Shirts. I can't speak for the T-Shirts, but the program is a mini work of art.
The program itself is A4 in size [8" by 11½"] with a full colour cover and runs for twenty eight pages inside. Along with the usual pictures of the artists [probably] appearing and mini bios, almost every page has some fun artwork by Tiny, including a comic strip!
Many people still cite this as being one of the best Festivals ever and if you read the reviews online, there is only glowing praise for that weekend of chaos, music & constipation recreation.
You may have been there. You may not have been there. You may have been there but can't remember being there. Either way, you can relive the moment by leafing through this vintage program, which remains in superb condition & free from creases, stains [known or unknown], tyre or burn marks.
A real treat !
