Comments & Reviews:

Apr 26, 2025

Marquee club,Wardour Street London Sunday June 15th 1969
Strawbs wee top of the bill
Support acts were David Bowie and James Taylor.
That must have been some concert to have been at with James Taylor (signed to the Beatle's Apple records) and David Bowie both in their early 20's just getting their careers off the ground!

Saw the Strawbs at Chatham Central Hall in the early 70s. Part of the Union was no. 1 at the time.
