AI notes: On July 21, 1979, the Allman Brothers Band performed at Madison Square Garden in New York City as part of their Enlightened Rogues tour. Featuring a lineup of original members Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Butch Trucks, and Jaimoe, along with Dan Toler and David Goldflies, the band delivered a dynamic setlist that included classics like “Blue Sky,” “Jessica,” and “Whipping Post.” The concert ended with multiple encores, including “Midnight Rider” and “Will the Circle Be Unbroken?” The Atlanta Rhythm Section opened the show, making it a memorable night of Southern rock at the iconic venue.
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 with 136 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. Rare as such.
