This time Suzanne Vega rounded out the headliners while Pixies also performed a notable slot. The second of those slots for Elvis Costello and Van Morrison. We also saw The Communards take a headline slot while New Order returned to the festival. Fatboy Slim was probably devastated by this. The first of consecutive headline sets for both Elvis Costello and Van Morrison. Slots were also given to Simply Red and Madness in what was a pretty solid line-up.

Tim Blake and Peter Gabriel were billed at the top of the list on a year when 12,000 people once again returned to the festival. No specific headline act when the festival returned after several years away. Pink Floyd were due to play but cancelled. No surprise, because it was free this time. It went from 1,500 people to 12,000 (which still wouldn't put a dent at the Pyramid Stage these days). It cost £1 and you could look forward to The Kinks performing the top slot.
