EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant music scene of the 1970s, specifically to The Reading Festival on Saturday 25th August 1973. The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, known simply as Alex Harvey for this performance, graced the stage with their electrifying presence. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see Zal Cleminson passionately strumming his Gibson SG Electric Guitar, effortlessly commanding attention. The festival itself was then called The Thirteenth National Jazz, Blues and Rock Festival and took place at Richfield Avenue in Reading, Berkshire. This iconic event brought together a diverse range of musical genres including pop, rock 'n' roll, blues and R&B. Alex Harvey's unique blend of glam rock captivated audiences that day as they delivered an unforgettable performance. With frizzy hair and adorned in jester-like makeup reminiscent of a clown or joker figure from a deck of cards; their visual presentation perfectly complemented their energetic sound. As we gaze upon this image captured by Mirrorpix on that summer afternoon over four decades ago, it serves as a reminder of the power music holds to transport us through time. It encapsulates not only an era but also the essence of live performances - raw emotion and sheer talent coming together to create magic on stage.
