kerry davies Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 If that is what I think it is (Shepton Mallett 1970) it sounded good, especially when Santana played. Only two years earlier This 200W? 400W? PA complete with stepladders was what an old mate rigged for Hyde Park. Check the line-up!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tokm Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Well that was a most interesting few minutes of reading! Didn't know such a site/page existed..Also nice to see that of all the stories Charlie Watkins must have, he thought to include one relating to my dads old lot at the early Hyde Park gigs :) Things really are so different these days aren't they! Thanks posting this Paul/PK.T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
