Fact #100550
When:
Short story:
Ike And Tina Turner, Jeff Beck, Moby Grape, Canned Heat, Procol Harum, John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Lee Michaels, The Flying Burrito Brothers, and others appear at the first and last Palm Springs Pop Festival and San Andreas Boogie in Palm Springs, California, USA.Full article:
Clyde Johnson (audience) : The first 'real' group of the evening came on in the late afternoon. It was Gram Parsons and Chris Hillman's new group, The Flying Burrito Brothers complete with their new 'Nudie' suits and looking like they had crawled off the cover of their first album The Guilded Palace of Sin. I thought Sneaky Pete looked cool in his black jump suit with the flying dinosaur on it.
By this time the sun was sinking low and we had been wined and dined by the folks around us. It seems every few minutes a gallon of Red Mountain wine would pass by or a smouldering joint. It went that way all afternoon and the gals there made sure everyone got a sandwich or two along with the always friendly offer to stick out your tongue just in case you wanted to sample Owsley's latest batch of purple acid.
Bikers, young hippies and kids like us made up most of the people there and though I had seen cops on the outside I never saw a badge inside the concert. As the sun set on the sage the Burritos left the stage and the stars came out.
