34 HOURS Continuing MM's occasional series 64411 * features rock people talking among them This week's participants are Soft Machi1 [I] drummer Robert Wyatt, Mick Farren, lea THE MUSIC PEOPLE Britain's White Panthers, and promoter! Bowyer and Mike Alfandary. The subject: t,

~: Does anyone feel that festiva,Js are 011' the way out?

Farren: Like rock and rolll (laugh). It's really a continuous move• ment. What a festival represents basically for me is that it's half a million people living exactly the way they want to live. It's unfortunate that both the free ones and the promoted don't basically differ very much - it's simply in the returns afterwards. When a thing is promoted it isn't done better because you're paying to go in. Generally it's quite often done wor<,e. AJfandlty.

Introducing the new singles artist FOCUS ON FOLK by Andrew Means Bob Dylan "'Watching The River Flow" . . ILL CLIFTON hardly needs any introduction. Since he moved to Eng­ B land from his native America in 1963 he has done much to further folk and country music. Through the BBC radio serief " Cellar F'ull Of onCBS7329 F'olk" he was introduced to a wide circle that might otherwise have missed him. But while a synopsis of his work is widely known, the details generally escape. At oi:es:ent he li. on che ~ brink oJ buying a 50 acre farm in Su&WX. which is likely to include ,n its e;t­ pdn.se provision for crafts like weavinJ. Similarly he is buying a piece. of 9rcp­ erty in .south west Virgini•• where he and hi$ r.amny OCotSl-ona11y visit to kt"Cp in touch w ith. Lbe American country ct1Jture.
