EDITORS COMMENTS
A snapshot of love and music captured in time. In this vintage photo print, we see a loving couple lost in their own world amidst the sea of festival goers at The Oval Pop Festival in South London during the late summer of 1972. As the crowd buzzes with excitement, this couple stands out, connected by their shared passion for music and each other. The festival was a celebration of progressive rock and pop, attracting renowned artists such as Rod Stewart, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Maggie Bell, and Brian Eno. It was a night filled with triumphs as Rod Stewart took home the Best Male Vocalist award while Emerson Lake and Palmer claimed an impressive seven awards. But beyond the glitz and glamour lies a fascinating detail - the man on the left sporting a sheepskin coat that epitomizes classic fashion from the 1970s. Flared trousers were all the rage back then too! Their style adds to the nostalgic charm of this picture. Sponsored by Melody Maker magazine, The Oval Pop Festival brought together thousands of music enthusiasts who flocked to witness unforgettable performances within these historic cricket grounds. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of an era defined by long hair, high heels, and incredible live music experiences. Thanks to Bradshaw and Barnham's Memory Lane Prints collection, we can now relive those magical moments from September 30th, 1972.
