Comment:
More from the Sunday performances at the 1969 Amougies Festival with the full set by The Nice, featuring of course Keith Emerson of later ELP fame. This is a typical set for the period (a mixture of original compositions, folk covers and classical/rock fusions), but shows the trio at their most energetic. As with previous torrents in this series, there are obvious issues with the sound quality - the tape recorder used was way below modern standards and the sound is nowhere near "professional" quality. This reservation aside, however, this is simply an unbelievable document of a legendary festival, and so our hearfelt thanks to the taper, JJB, for recording this at the time.
