A rare poster of a one time festival. 25 August 1979, Portrush, Northern Ireland saw the Causeway Coast Music Festival. John played the Saturday night.
Tom Paxton deserves praise for keeping it.

Two consecutive shows in Milan at the Teatro di Porta Romana. Both shows sold out. One was apparently filmed by a local tv-station. The show was also bootlegged and subsequently released as Live in Milan 1979.
"Un concerto di musica vera". How true..

John Angus designed and printed a large number of silkscreen posters for Lancaster University between 1976 and 1981. Two of them advertised John Martyn shows.
This poster for the John Martyn concert of 29 November 1977 is based on a photo he took of a garden in the UK.
The supporting act was Prelude.
