The band's work effort and inspired live performances had established Taste truly as a "people's" band. Praise for the band - and, especially, Rory Gallagher - came from many noted musicians: John Lennon championed Taste while Jimi Hendrix, when asked how it felt to be the world's greatest guitarist, replied that he had no idea and the question should be redirected to Rory.
Yet, internally. Taste were bitterly divided due to differences between Gallagher and the rhythm section over management, money and status. A break-in to the band's van only drum pedals were stolen the night before they headed to IOW brought tensions to a head with Rory emphasising that if management had provided Taste with a superior vehicle as long requested the theft wouldn't have occurred.
If tensions were simmering in the van the Southampton ferry crossing on Friday morning provided a sense of exhilaration - they could feel the excitement building as thousands of rock fans gathered for the festival. Unfortunately, the huge numbers of people arriving on the IOW population , meant Taste struggled to get on site in time for their late afternoon set.
Things only got worse once there as they became aware the festival was being filmed: their manager threatened to cancel Taste's performance. But perform they did: taking the stage in perfect conditions. Taste tore into 'What's Going On'. The huge audience, until then somewhat subdued in response to the afternoon's bands, rose to their feet.
The ten thousand hours Kory had put in playing live over the past six years ignited a truly explosive performance.

Momentous event in the history of music. Presence of so many deities. It also reminds the unfulfilled potential remains a lingering pain in such untimely demises. However, appeal of such lives is, in fact, rooted in the abruptness of their end.
