Legends of Glastonbury

Lauren Laverne introduces from the archive some of the most memorable performances from the legendary artists who have played Glastonbury Festival over the years. Artists include singer-songwriter Paul Simon from the Pyramid Stage in 2011, pop princess Kylie Minogue, London’s Nutty Boys Madness from 2009, South Africa’s Ladysmith Black Mambazo from 2000, sixties icons Crosby, Still and Nash, reggae legend Jimmy Cliff, grande dame of punk Pattie Smith from 2015, blues guitar great BB King, Chrissie Hynde’s Pretenders from 2017, double-denim kings of rock ‘n’ roll Status Quo, punk icons Blondie from 2014, pop and reggae superstar Eddy Grant, and Dame Shirley Bassey in her 2007 Pyramid Stage performance. Then, for good measure, the 2015 set by guitar heroes The Who and the ultimate living legend, Sir Paul McCartney, headlining the Pyramid Stage in 2004. Plus many more legends too numerous to mention.
