LIVE AT ESSEN POP AND BLUES FESTIVAL 1969/1970 2CD

In the autumn of 1969 and twice more in 1970, three festivals took place in Essen’s Grugahalle on the initiative of the young Konrad Mallison with the “Essen Pop and Blues Days”, which presented a very large number of the best bands in the rock scene in its early stages. The thousands of hippies and freaks may not have been aware of this, but historically these festivals can be counted among the pioneering achievements and thus the beginning of festival culture in Germany. To mention just a few names, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Supertramp, but also many more from very different areas of rock music.Unfortunately, the performances were not fully and completely documented. But some very well-preserved recordings have come to light. The WDR sound engineer at the time did not always press the “stop” button on the few recordings that still exist.
MIG music is working to preserve these jewels. The first release now includes two festival performances (1969 and 1970) by the Keef Hartley Band, an important representative of the British blues rock scene at the time – a total of almost 2 hours of music. In retrospect, the singer, composer and guitarist of the band at the time, Miller Anderson, regards these recordings as the best audio document of the group that has survived alongside the first studio albums. The double CD “Live at Essen Pop and Blues Festival 1969 / 1970″ will be released on 26.04.2024. There will be a first audio sample on 05.04.2024.The next steps are already planned. This includes the almost 50-minute performance of the Third Ear Band as representatives of the London Psycho / Garage / Folk Rock Scene, unique and incomparable.We hope for further releases

Two great live concerts of The Keef Hartley Band at the Essen Blues and Pop Festival from 1969/1970 finally available on a double CD. In 1963, Keef Hartley joined the band Rory Storm & The Hurricanes, with whom Ringo Starr had previously drummed. After intermittent stints with John Lord in The Artwoods and engagements in Hamburg's Starclub, Hartley took part in John Mayall's album "The Blues Alone" in May 1967, on which Mayall played all the instruments except the drums himself. After that, Hartley was a permanent member of the Bluesbreakers until 1968, when the busy drummer formed his own band, The Keef Hartley Band.
With Miller Anderson (guitar, vocals), Gary Thain (bass) and Mick Weaver (keyboards) as well as saxophonist Chris Mercer, the line-up was top-class. In spring 1969, the first album "Halfbreed" was released, which served the popular genre of progressive jazz rock, in the style of bands such as Colosseum, If, Chicago and Blood, Sweat & Tears. In the same year, the Keef Hartley Band performed at the Woodstock Festival (on the 2nd day - Saturday - before The Incredible String Band). There are no audio or film recordings of their performance. Only a tape recording of a fan with fragments of some songs is said to have survived. The manager of the KHB had forbidden the recording of the concert for both audio and film. 3 months after Woodstock, The Keef Hartley Band performed at the Essen Pop & Blues Festival in the Grugahalle in October 1969, as well as at the second edition of this festival a few months later on 25 April 1970. In contrast to the Woodstock Festival, there are sound recordings of these, which have now been lovingly edited and are being made available to a wide audience for the first time in almost 55 (!) years. This is a historical document of the times, says guitarist and singer Miller Anderson, "The best thing you can hear from us live!"
