THE VILLAGE VOICE (weekly), Greenwich Village, New York, May 2, 1974
* "Queen" II concert tour - English rock band
* Gershwin Theatre performances advertisement
* The Allman Brothers Band concert advertisement
* Lynyrd Skynyrd "Second Helping" album release

Page 59 has a full page advertisement for: "QUEEN II" concert at the Uris (Gershwin) Theatre in Manhattan.
Page 67 has a full page illustrated advertisement for a "THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND" concert at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. Notice the Confederate theme here.
And pages 76 & 77 has a terrific double page advertisement "LYNYRD SKYNYRD" for the release of their second album: "Second Helpings" (see images) This is considered the group's breakthrough album which contained their famous hit "Sweet Home Alabama" amongst others. Nice to have photos of the band members including Ronnie Van Zant.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
As most might be aware "The Village Voice" was an American news and culture paper, known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history.
Complete in 128 pages, tabloid-size, folded at the center, nice condition.
Provenance note: This issue comes from The Village Voice's own archives, part of their in-house collection used to create their digital archive and has never been in circulation. Rare as such.
