"BILL GRAHAM PRESENTS IN SAN FRANCISCO..."
PIC INFO: Spotlight on Abba Zaba-inspired concert poster art for DEEP PURPLE, IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY, and COLD BLOOD, live at the Fillmore West, November 28-30 + December 1, 1968. San Francisco, CA. Artwork by Rick Griffin (✝) and Alton Kelley.
OVERVIEW: "The third and final Rick Griffin and Alton Kelley collaboration (Griffin often collaborated with Victor Moscoso, and Kelley of course worked with Stanley Mouse on virtually all of his compositions) was a good example of both artists' use of contemporary advertising in their design. The poster features a taxi cab checker design with an "Abba-Zabba" candy bar wrapper and image of monkey working on transistor. Abba-Zabbas were candy bars made at the time by the Cardinet Candy Company of Oakland, across the Bay from San Francisco. Perhaps a favorite of one of the artists?
This poster advertises the very first tour of DEEP PURPLE who had a hit single, “Hush,”  that reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts. It would be a few more years before they hit the real Big Time with the heavy metal classic, “Smoke on the Water.” Here they opened for SF-based IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY who were getting massive Bay-Area airplay with their hits, “White Bird,” and “Hot Summer Day.”

I got drunk with Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler. And when I woke up, I was in Black Sabbath.

HEY! all the queers in the theater tonight!!! HELP
if you are open to sharing how rock music impacted your queer identity, please share! even a sentence or two would be appreciated. i am working on a research paper called Rock and Roll is gay, inspired by all of you guys 🥰 i am hoping to use a handful of direct quotes from my moots at the end of the paper.
if you are interested in participating:
this paper is for my own academic use and will NOT be published or shared with anyone beyond my professor and my peer review partner (who is SO in love with my work) I just need to pass a class ya’ll 😅
if you don’t want your tumblr handle to be used please make that clear.
i will use they/them pronouns in reference to the user, unless you otherwise specify.
you can share however you want! I think a long chain of reblogs would be awesome. but you are more than welcome to private message me (anonymously or otherwise) or just throw a thought in the comments.
lastly: if you want to share but do NOT want it to be used in my paper please make that clear, also 😌
thank you guys. i love and miss you like crazy and hopefully i will be back in the club during winter break. but for now im just gay little dude trying to not die in america 😀
