Description

It was, to properly use the old expression, rock around the clock. For ten hours, people set out around on the grass of The University of Texas at Arlington's football stadium and listened to groups; Lead Stamps, Dog, Israfel, Contraband, Argus, Holden Caulfield, Tidus Oats, Sugar Shack and Sam Bass. More than 1,000 came to enjoy the music and honor the cause - the Amil Frichk Leukemia Fund. Over $2,000 was raised. Image is one the drummers from one of the many bands that attended the music festival. Published in Fort Worth Star-Telegram Tempo, evening edition May 4, 1971.
