The Third Isle of Wight Festival began on this date (a 3 day festival over the weekend) featuring many great Rock-n-Rollers.Some of those included Jethro Tull, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, The Who, Free, Procol Harum, Chicago, Spirit, Jimi Hendrix and The Moody Blues. If we could go back in time to enjoy all those shows like this one, that would be awesome. This was Jimi's last time performing in Great Britain.

Take some time to go back in time with me to the Third Isle of Wight Festival  August of 1970 and enjoy a trio of songs from The Moody Blues performing at this festival, featuring Gypsy,Tuesday Afternoon and Never Comes The Day.
