Redcar Blues 1991

In May 1991 I attended the Langbaurgh International Blues Festival in Redcar in North Yorkshire. The event, which took place over the early May bank holiday weekend, attracted a stellar line-up of US and UK blues artists and I took the opportunity to photograph many of the acts at fairly close range using my Canon A1, loaded with Ilford XP5 and shooting without flash at ISO 1600. Here's a selection of the results.
