As promised I am attaching pages from Zigzag magazine from 1975 re the Midsummer Madness concert featuring Joe. If you are unable to read the print, let me know and I can send direct to you a much larger file which is easier to read. However these I think are okay.
First time I've post pics so hope they work!
Reading the article again brings it all back. Me and two mates drove up to London from Southampton (south coast) for the gig and it was a scorching hot summer's day. We booked tickets for Elton John and the Eagles as it was advertised, and were stunned when a week or so later Joe was announced as we were huge fans.
What pleased us was how responsive the UK fans were - Joe got a big cheer whenever his name was announced by the MC and he came on mid afternoon with the words "I ain't been up this early in years!"
The set was fab as you can guess from the listing, and of course soon after he joined the Eagles. If the truth be told, for the English audience the Beach Boys just blew everybody away but I still fill up when I think of that day...what a line up!!
So you were at that Wembley show in 1975 with Elton, the Beach Boys, the Eagles and Joe? I think you're the first person I've encountered who was actually at that show. How cool.
