The Lindisfarne Story – The Deco

The Deco The Deco, Abington Square, Northampton NN1 4AE

Back in 1971 LINDISFARNE released their ground-breaking first album and began to attract the fervent fan base that followed them for decades.

In October that year they released their second album ‘FOG ON THE TYNE’ which topped the UK charts for six weeks in spring 1972. ‘Fog on the Tyne’ was a game-changer, and UK and international success soon followed.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of this classic album, Lindisfarne frontman BILLY MITCHELL and founder member RAY LAIDLAW tell the group’s amazing story with a combination of superb songs, vital video, tall tales and of course, scurrilous gossip.
