Really sad to hear that Julie Felix died yesterday. She was an inspirational trailblazer for acoustic folk and traditional music in the UK. With her own TV show in the 1960s she had some amazing guests and certainly opened my ears to lots of great artists. RIP >Julie Felix Shine On Michael

She was a very familiar presence on British TV at a time when I was hungry for any sight of a guitar being played.
She played a spellbinding set at the Isle of Wight festival 1969 in front of a crowd restlessly waiting for Bob Dylan. I've long forgotten most of the acts who were there, but I've never forgotten Julie Felix's set.
Thanks Julie.
