John Fahey onstage at Camden © Chris Downes

i went [of course] but no photos or tapes;
just a very clear recollection of the procul harem and soft machine parts
i also remember john fahey, playing a
short drunken set and rumours of him falling of his stool while playing his
guitar, something like that; the only time i ever saw him; think he may have
had a disease that mimicked the symptoms of drunkeness as well;
it was a very nice after noon, altho the girl i took with got bored and left
before the end without me!
