    Notes
  • The songs come from the show review posted chez LIA. We imagine "I Walk The Line" as "Only Daddy That'll Walk The Line" and "Why Oh Why" was "Fair Chance To Know". The review mentions Pigpen on harmonica with the New Riders, which would be cool - we can't think of many examples of this offhand.

  • The Miss World 1970 beauty pageant, hosted by Bob Hope at the Royal Albert Hall, London is disrupted by Women's Liberation protesters. Earlier on the same evening a bomb is placed under a BBC outside broadcast vehicle by The Angry Brigade, in protest at the entry of separate black and white contestants by South Africa.
