Pink Floyd: Walters, Gilmour, Wright and Mason RIBA

Idris Walters, Let It Rock, September 1975

99. THERE ARE only three interesting things about Stevenage New Town. One is that there is a Museum there. (!) A Museum? Another is that Stevenage New Town, along with Goldhawk Road, Carpenders Park and Forest Hill, shares a dedication (or at least the kids in those places share a dedication) on the sleeve notes to Quadrophenia. The only other interesting thing is that they have a rock festival nearby every once in a while. By virtue of a country home, it is usually referred to as "Knebworth".
