The official programme for the 1984 Nostell Priory Music Festival, held over four days, 24–27 August 1984, at Nostell Priory, Wakefield, Yorkshire. The line-up featured Van Morrison, The Damned, Steppenwolf, Lindisfarne, The Band, Steeleye Span, Alvin Lee, Marillion, and Phil Lynott’s Grand Slam—the latter one of Lynott’s final major projects following the break-up of Thin Lizzy.

This copy is of particular importance, containing contemporary signatures of Phil Lynott and other Grand Slam members (Robbie Brennan, Mark Stanway, Lawrence Archer, Doish Nagle), making it a rare signed relic of Lynott’s post–Thin Lizzy career.
