In 1972, the organizers of the Glastonbury Fayre released an amazingly lavish, triple album set to raise funds for the fair. Only 5,000 copies were pressed up, and the now quite rare originals invariably are sold for sizeable sums. The albums best tracks were recorded directly from the festival and include Mighty Baby, both Pink Fairies tracks, the Edgar Broughton Band and Daevid Allen and Gong. Others were indeed recorded live -- like the Grateful Dead's side-long "Dark Star...Bury" extravaganza, and the original, unmixed version of Hawkwind's "Silver Machine" (barely recognizable here as the hit that would soon devour the planet) -- but on other stages: the Dead were captured at Wembley Stadium earlier that year, and Hawkwind at the Roundhouse. Marc Bolan and Pete Townshend handed over more personal offerings, a song each recorded at their respective homes, while other artists delivered unreleased studio recordings. All told, it is a stunning set music wise with rarities galore... the Pink Fairies are caught in their most RAW form and their side long jams represent what the Fairies were all about = hellacious fuzzed-out power chord freak'n'roll, blowing away their studio albums... as well, Daevid Allen's GONG are caught in their peak days with a like-wise side long excursion and represent their most psychedelic sounds, completely madcap acid trips...then, yet another side long jam finds the mighty Edgar Broughton Band stretching out their anthem heavy jammer "Out Demons Out" in classic raw heaviness....
