SynopsisFrom 1968 to 1971 Bill Graham's Fillmore East in New York City was the East coast Mecca for the music that shaped a generation. Not only that: thanks to a visionary technical staff and unsurpassed psychedelic light shows, the Fillmore East stage was the place where rock music became rock theater. Now available in paperback, the highly acclaimed Live at the Fillmore East tells the story of its heyday with more than 200 black and white behind-the-scenes photographs and exclusive interviews. Included here are photos of the Who's premiere of Tommy in 1969; John and Yoko's surprise encore to a Frank Zappa concert; the jam between the Allman Brothers, the Grateful Dead, and Mick Fleetwood in 1970; Janis Joplin's first performance after singing with CBS records; Jimi Hendrix's New Year's Eve concerts; Van Morrison during the first-ever television taping of a rock concert in 1970; and many other defining moments of rock history Amalie R. Rothschild's pictures bring back the entire Fillmore East experience in vivid detail. Rock and Roll was a baby back then and Bill Graham was it's midwife - he birthed the modern version of a rock and roll concert. -- Mickey Hart, From 1968 to 1971 Bill Graham's Fillmore East in New York City was the East coast Mecca for the music that shaped a generation.

Good But Not A Complete History (Just What Photographer Saw & Covered)
I enjoyed book but did not like pictures from other concert venues (where photographer traveled and took pictures at) as much. Also the technical information (light show staff etc.) got boring after awhile (too much info). Still plenty of great stuff in book.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Loved It
This book had many things. It had photographs. It had bands. It had crowds. It had parties. It had an origin story. It had everything one could love about the late 60's and early 70s. Best pick it up for those nostalgic for the late 60's and early 70's as well as for budding history buffs.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
