The 'forgotten Popfestival in Hilversum (the Netherlands) aka 'SUMMERCONCERT 74' on July 18, 1974 at the Gemeentelijke Sportpark Hilversum with Earth & Fire (NL), Alquin (NL), John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu Orchestra (USA), Tim Buckley (USA), The Doobie Brothers (USA), Van Morrison (did not perform because of an incident) and The Allman Brothers Band (USA) - here also pictures of the ‘surprise appearance of the Amsterdam Hells Angels during the Doobie Brothers show.
The Dutch Summerconcert ‘74 with over 20.000 visitors was only 2 days before the very first Knebworth (UK) 1974 festival on 20 July with almost the same international line-up e.g. Mahavishnu Orchestra, Tim Buckley, The Doobie Brothers and Allman Brothers Band.
Interesting to mention that the Allman Brothers played their very first gig outside the USA at this festival on the 18th of July 1974 on this festival in Hilversum (NL).

Album cover design for independent production companies and labels, for me a great way to combine my photography and ideas into one creative (music) design project.

just for the fun I started in 2017 to colorise some of my old family black and white photo’s using the Selection and Colouring layering techniques in Photoshop. Of course I had to scan them first using my Epson V600 and ‘clean and remove all spots and scratches from the digital files before starting the colouring process, but that was (for me) also part of the fun. Check here some of the photo’s I did and see how really old photo’s live up and how my parents, grand parents, my uncle Oom Jan who died in the 2nd World War and other close family members started to live up again even from photo’s made around 1920.
