On August 2, 1964, the Rolling Stones played at the Longleat House Pop Festival near Warminster, drawing a crowd of 16,000. The concert turned chaotic, leaving over 200 fans injured in the turmoil. A policeman warned that fatalities were possible if the situation worsened. Fortunately, it didn’t. Despite the mayhem, the show continued. The Stones earned £1000 for their set, sharing the bill with Danny Clarke and The Jaguars, and Tony Rivers and The Castaways. A silent private film is rumored to exist but has never surfaced.
Billy Preston’s Live European Tour features Mick Taylor as a special guest, adding bluesy flair to Preston’s soulful performances. The tour, which took place in the mid-1970s, showcased Preston’s dynamic keyboard work and charismatic stage presence. Taylor, recently departed from the Rolling Stones, joined for several dates, contributing his signature guitar style. Their collaboration brought together funk, rock, and gospel influences. While few recordings survive, the tour remains a memorable chapter in both artists’ live careers.
