STEELEYE SPAN - CAIRD HALL - 1972

The photos of Steeleye Span on stage at the Caird Hall were taken by my brother on 28th October 1972.
The band was probably the most commercial of the folk-rock acts that were on the go at that time.
The line-up did chop & change around this period so the only definite on the blurry images is vocalist, Maddy Prior, although that's probably Peter Knight (wearing the hat) on fiddle. I wouldn't want to commit myself on the other members on view.
The support act on the night was another folk-rock band, The Amazing Blondel. Don't know much about them, but a wee bit of trivia I have is that Eurythmic, Dave Stewart, used to be roadie with The Amazing Blondel as well as occasional guitarist!
