Unknown Band play Windsor Free festival Monday 26th August 1973© Vin Miles

  

" The second Windsor festival was just a little larger than 1972, (about 1500 or so I'd say). People spilled out from the woods and were camping in the fields on either side. Hawkwind were playing. The sun shone. "

   The festival had its fair share of busts and hassles, but it was not broken up by the police and despite the relatively small numbers , it gave those who attended some valuable experience in how to outsmart the police .This would of course have rankled and probably helped sow the seeds for the nasty confrontations that took place in 1974.
