Not so much a festival as a series of concerts held at the Singer Bowl in Queens.

The stadium opened in 1964 and as well as holding sporting events, it hosted several gigs in the late 60s, including Jimi Hendrix,  Janis Joplin and The Who. It was eventually pulled down in 2016.


The July 13th gig is documented in the Led Zeppelin archives because Jimmy Page, Robert Plant & John Bonham jammed with the Jeff Group, which does sound tremendous. Zep were back the following month to headline their own show. 
The full list of acts at this series of gigs is.


Buddy Guy, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Edwin Hawkins Singers, James Brown, Larry Coryell, Led Zeppelin, N.R.B.Q., Odetta, Pentangle, Procol Harum, Raven, Steppenwolf, Ten Years After, The Chambers Brothers, The Incredible String Band, The Jeff Beck Group, The Moody Blues, Tim Hardin, Tom Paxton, Vanilla Fudge
