Britain's Glastonbury music festival was wrapping up Sunday with a double bill of golden oldies following controversy over its first ever hip-hop headliner, Jay-Z, and troubled star Amy Winehouse.
Leonard Cohen, 73, and Neil Diamond, 67, are the biggest draws on the final day alongside headliners The Verve, one of the biggest Britpop bands of the 1990s, who reformed last year.
Earlier, Michael Eavis, the farmer who has hosted the annual mudfest on his land almost every year since 1970, hailed Jay-Z's performance as "a triumph" which had proved doubters wrong
'I'm not having hip-hop at Glastonbury, it's wrong' .
He also defended Winehouse, who appeared to lash out at a fan during her set on Saturday.
Her spokesperson told the BBC that the star, recently diagnosed with the lung condition emphysema, had reacted when a fan tried to grab her hair when she went to the front of the stage.
Some music fans have blamed the choice of Jay-Z as the centrepiece Saturday night headliner for relatively slow ticket sales at the 135 000 capacity event, which is traditionally dominated by guitar and dance music.
Noel Gallagher, the guitarist with previous headliners Oasis, said in widely quoted comments in April: "I'm not having hip-hop at Glastonbury, it's wrong."
But Jay-Z hit back, striding on stage with a guitar slung around his neck to start his set with a tongue-in-cheek cover of Oasis's Wonderwall.
Organisers of the festival in southwest England say they asked him to play because they wanted to appeal to a younger audience.
