I wonder if that Fender Bassman below Eric Clapton is actually George Harrison's amp. That amp does pop up in a Blind Faith promo picture, but it's not an amp associated with Clapton. It's possible Clapton could have had one, too, but I have a feeling it doesn't seem likely.

It's Eric's Fender Tremolux. You can see him use this amp during Blind Faith rehearsals at his home in Surrey.

They only put out about 15 - 20 watts so it would have been pretty useless at Hyde Park.

I thought they were 30 watts, but oh, well. And speaking useless amps at Hyde Park, do we know why there was an AC-30 on Mick Taylor's side of the stage?

Are there some good p[hotos of the amp situation HM and tomk are talking about in Hyde Park?
True. I have read though that Brian didn't do drugs at the R&RC. At this time his depression and paranoia was a bigger problem for him than drugs and he is even supposed to have been worried for Keith's use of drugs at the show. It's easy to understand since Keith's skin was yellow(!).Quote

I wouldn't put TOO much weight to the story about Brian crying all the time. First off you see him a good bit in the film not crying, and I have known people to drop acid and just...cry a lot for a while. But not because they were sad.
