City's Fillmore East, dated nine days before the music venue closed,
is signed by a Who's Who of late 1960's and early 1970's rock. PETE TOWNSHEND

incidentally, his song writing) with the Who. "SCREAMIN'" SCOTT SIMON was
a founding member of 1950s nostalgia band Sha Na Na. JOHN DAWSON was a
founding member of New Riders of the Purple Sage and appeared on three
Grateful Dead albums: Aoxomoaoa (1969), American Beauty (1970) and
Workingman's Dead (1970). This photo CYNTHIA ROBINSON and JERRY
MARTINI of Sly and the Family Stone; JOHN KAY of Steppenwolf; JOHN SEBASTIAN of
The Lovin' Spoonful; JERRY VELEZ, drummer with Jimi Hendrix's Gypsy Sun and the
Rainbows; GENE CORNISH and DINO DANELLI of the Young Rascals;
singer/songwriter DAVID LAFLAMME, founder of It's a Beautiful Day and the
first incarnation of Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks; STEVE KNIGHT of blues
rock outfit Mountain and acid-folksy The Devil's Anvil; and DICKIE ANDERSON
of Blue Cheer. Rock promoter Bill Graham opened the Fillmore East in New
York City on March 8, 1968, at a site formerly occupied by a Yiddish theater
and then a run-down movie house, in order to have an East Coast complement to
his Fillmore West in San Francisco. The Fillmore East held its last concert
on June 27, 1971, but in its slightly over three years it featured
performances by many of rock's established and emerging stars, as well as jazz
and folk performances. Several live performances at the Fillmore East were
turned into record albums. Although the site of the 3,664-seat auditorium is now
occupied by an apartment house, a Fillmore East Preservation Society helps keep
its legend alive. Lightly bowed and soiled. Lightly creased corners. Random ink
stains on verso. Otherwise in fine condition.
