About this book
From 1968 to 1971 Bill Grahams 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 hundreds of behind-the-scenes photographs and exclusive interviews. Included here are photos of the Whos premiere of Tommy in 1969; John and Yokos surprise encore to a Frank Zappa concert; the jam between the Allman Brothers the Grateful Dead and Mick Fleetwood in 1970; Janis Joplins first performance after signing with CBS records; Jimi Hendrixs New Years Eve concerts; Van Morrison during the first-ever television taping of a rock concert in 1970; and many other defining moments of rock history.
