The Magickal Childe Samhain Festival 1985

These festivals (according to the ad below) happened annually for at least 8 years. I can only remember 2 of them. The main one being the famous one that was filmed for Nevllie Drury/Frank Heiman's move "The Occult Experience" © 1985. This is the one that we were highly involved with, participating with several groups. I remember Dr John being there also, but did he perform? If so, why don't I remember (Gris - Gris, Mama Roux - some of my favorites...).

The film clip below I edited from the movie. I claim no rights to do so, other than since I was part of the film, I claim the right to show those parts of the movie. The whole movie can be seen on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrjbQP4iDok.

The audio clip I recorded was recorded at Magickal Childe Samhain Festival either 1984 or 1985. I tried to enhance the sound and remove as much of the background street noise as possible. This is The Pagan Way from that time, doing our 'Bardic Circle' which I put together using songs and chants from Selena Fox, Tim Zell, Z. Budapest, Charlie Murphy, Deena Metzger etc.

All pictures are mine except those stills taken from and attributed to the movie.

With Daisy and Demetri, John, Nancy, Allen, Amy, Dolores, April, Brian, Stuart, Roz?, Doug?, Liz, Maria, Sharon, others?

Might you have other pictures from that time? Please let me know.
