 Beginning on page 83 is a editorial on Ronnie Van Zant and his group Lynyrd Skynyrd with photo of Zant. This was the year before the fatal airplane crash that killed Ronnie Van Zant amongst others.
Page 87 has a advertisement for a "GENESIS" concert at the Beacon Theatre in Mnahattan. (see image)
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper 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. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
Complete in 128 pages, one fold across the center, small red library stamp on the front page, generally in very nice condition.
