In the latest review of a concert from years passed, courtesy of Brain Damage regular Ian McKenzie, we take a look back a (quite astonishing) 20 years to the 1990 Knebworth concert in aid of the Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy Charity. This featured a star-studded line-up and very mixed weather - from bright sunshine and warmth, through to persistant rain and wind, which materially affected Pink Floyd's appearance at the top of the bill, ahead of people like Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, Cliff Richard and more...Way back in 1976 a classmate of mine introduced me to the music of Pink Floyd. He lent me the cassette of 'Wish You Were Here', and by the time I'd finished listening to the second track, 'Welcome to the Machine', I was completely hooked. He also told me about a huge open-air concert that Pink Floyd had played the previous year at a place called 'Nebworth'.
