Steampacket: Brian Auger Trinity with Long John Baldry, Julie Driscoll and Rod Stewart.

8th August 1965. 



     The all star jam was the finale of the 1965 festival ,if anyone can confirm the identity of soem of the artist onstage we would be most grateful. Obviously, we have Chas Chandler, Eric Burdon, Julie Driscoll, John Baldry, Rod Stewart and several members of Spencer Davis onstage , but we don't know who was on bass and drums - possibly Steampackets rhythm section ?

The stills below were taken from an archival film that exists of the 1965 show, recorded for the US TV show Shindig but it is not known just how much footage of the set exists.
 




    If you have photos, recollections, set lists, newspaper reports  or tapes of the event then Contact us and we'll add them to the site.
