Small correction - the original electric stock as shown was 1923 designed stock - the 1938 stock was a later replacement

We Fairfield parlour actually opened the festival great experience great day never forget that one keep rockin cheers dan

I watched Annika is 1984 and thought I’d reminisce about the group that captured mine and my girlfriends attention back then.

When were these videos made? The narrator's accent seems to be fairly modern.

It’s. A. Shame. Sandown is. So. Run. Down. Never. Used to. Be.

They're great aren't they...

Wish I had the old delta t albums on tape still lol. My favourite old track was busha -island.

At 5:13 you show Red Funnel Shearwater, The first Red Funnel Shearwater hydrofoil was First introduced in 1969 and introduced a fast passenger service between Cowes and Southampton.

Best iow band Eva

Some great memories.

What a beautiful place it was.

I was there, 17 and still at school. Went specifically to see Joni, Leonard and the Doors but watched just about everything. Set me up for life and a continuing love of festivals. Didn't like the macrobiotic bread though- hard as nails 😕

I was there .......... wonderful music, wonderful clothes, wonderful attitudes, wonderful times. Oh I wish I had a time machine to take me back.

1969...Woodstock...1970...Wight..Peace and Love...🌿🌷🌻🦋

Love the video, would like to see more

One of the best shows of the grandmaster of rhythm, harpin' and stompin'; and what a couple at his side! Heather for President!

This couple on stage is awesome. And everybody is dancing. Great!!!

Ha ha my home town 🤣

Come to Brazil!

Paradise Lost

The narrator sounds like Alan Partridge; can't be. Fred Dinage?

At least “modern” times enable us to relive the fabulous times still fresh in our hearts & minds, all may not have been well with the world, but our bit of it in Brighton was great!

Gary IOW: Thanks for this Gary.

Were can I get message of love Documentary 1970 DVD

Ventnor used to have its own pier! Then someone from the Hastings Eastbourne district paid a visit? Oh what am I implying?

Shortly after this, all these people got married, got mortgages, had kids, and voted for Mrs Thatcher to destroy the Welfare State and full employment they'd been so happy to benefit from. Happy days.

Wow! What a blast from the past! A real treat to see! One word.... CHARISMA! x

Thank you again mysterious JED2781

Thank you so much for this so good to see it again after all these years

Ditto... 15 years old.. first time I saw a guy with ginger pubes..😂

I was there best few days ever you just have to look at the play list there’s never been a better

As one of the many paying festival goers, I was particularly pissed off with the freeloaders. Most of them didn't even pay for the ferry fare to or from the Island and then decided that the festival should be free. Then, as anarchists always do, they wreck everything to get their way.! All of them were probably on the dole (benefits), then and if they weren't now dead from drugs, are still on benefits now. They are anarchists and anarchists don't work!

I was there. Superb weekend. Jimi at 2:30 Sunday morning. Fabulous

The background music from the greatest of all modern rock bands. Quicksilver. The magnificence of CIpolina Duncan. has never been surpassed

Lol...Your choice of music to describe your feelings about the Robin is quite unusual.Techno?Dance music?Lol...What about the sound of mother nature.My dear friend can you make another video without this music.I like this music but it doesn’t do justice to this incredible and magic moment that you spend near a Robin.Just let the sound of nature please.Much love,light and respect to you.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤🐤😍😍😍😍😍😍👏🏼✍🏻✍🏻✍🏻

I was there with an old mate who was,Stephen Hiscox.

Awesome music, thank you!!

I have travelled the Ryde Pierhead to Cowes behind those lovely steam engines many times,. lovely video of happy days.

I was there.....carrying my child.....there will never ever be such a time again....I weep....with joy and with sadness
