Bob Dylan, Isle Of Wight, Vinyl LP

Jacket VG++

Vinyl VG+

The 1969 Isle of Wight Festival was held on August 30 - August 31, 1969, at Wootton, and attracted an audience of approximately 150,000 to see the acts of Bob Dylan, The Who and Free. It was the second of three music festivals held on the Isle of Wight between 1968 and 1970. Organised by Fiery Creations, aka brothers Ronnie and Ray Foulk, it became a legendary event largely owing to the reappearance of Bob Dylan. The event was well managed and trouble free.

The festival was so much larger and more popular than the year before due to Dylan's performance. He hadn't played publicly for 3 years following a near fatal motorcycle accident, July 1966. Shunning the Woodstock festival held practically on his doorstep, Bob Dylan was initially reluctant to perform his comeback show on this little known island. After weeks of negotiations the promoters showed him a short video of the Island's cultural and literary heritage. This appealed to Dylan's artistic sensibilities as he was enthusiastic about performing in Tennyson country. Prior to the festival Bob Dylan and The Band rehearsed at Forelands Farm in Bembridge, and were joined by The Beatles minus Paul McCartney. Among the 150,000 audience members were John Lennon with Yoko Ono, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, Rolling Stones Keith Richards and Bill Wyman, Syd Barrett, Eric Clapton, Elton John and Jane Fonda.
