The Pink Fairies - 1970-71 - Live At The BBC
The Pink Fairies were an English rock band active in the London (Ladbroke Grove) underground and psychedelic scene of the early 1970s. They promoted free music, drug taking and anarchy and often performed impromptu gigs and other agitprop stunts, such as playing for free outside the gates at the Bath and Isle of Wight pop festivals in 1970, as well as appearing at Phun City, the second Glastonbury and many other free festivals including Windsor and Trentishoe. The group was formed when the three musicians from The Deviants (Paul Rudolph, Duncan Sanderson, and Russell Hunter), having sacked their singer and leader Mick Farren, returned from a disastrous tour of the West Coast of the United States and hooked up with Twink, former drummer of The Pretty Things. Paul Rudolph, guitar and vocals, Trevor Burton, guitar, Duncan Sanderson, bass and Russell Hunter, drums. Live performances for BBC broadcast.
