1967 Jimi Hendrix gig ad in Greenwich Village...



Item # 700976

August 03, 1967

THE VILLAGE VOICE, Greenwich Village, New York, Aug. 3, 1967

* Very early Jimi Hendrix performance advertisement
* American electric guitarist, songwriter and singer
* Swami Satchidananda Saraswati editorial


Page 24 has a 4 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch advertisement for "The Jimi Hendrix Experience" which was performed four nights at the Salvation Club in Greenwich Village. Hendrix released his debut album "Are You Experienced" just a few months earlier. I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
It is worth noting that "The Village Voice" was an American news and culture paper, known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. Founded in 1955, the Voice began as a platform for the creative community of New York City.
Other interesting items from the counter-culture era. Complete in 40 pages, tabloid-size, one crease across 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.

Alert: Many issues of The Village Voice contain articles and/or photos which some consider offensive, and are certainly inappropriate for children. Please purchase with discretion.
