Rare Friends & Relations Great Highway @ Beach AOR Original Concert Poster
660 Great Hiway at the Beach. Friday and Saturday April 2nd and 3rd. The show also included Harland and the Magician with lights by Windows and Clouds. This incredible piece is in great shape. The printing method bled through to the back, it’s neat the methods used to make the posters over 53 years ago. This was printed before the show and was never displayed. 11 x 17 inches. A trusted member of the community reached out to me with this information on June 4th, 2024. Poster is from April 2-3, 1971 Friends and Relations Hall, San Francisco, CA: Aum/Loading Zone/Flamin Groovies (Friday-Saturday). Friends and Relations Hall was the new name for the former Family Dog At The Great Highway, Chet Helms’ operation from June 1969 to August’70. The locals had called the hall, at 660 Great Highway, “Playland, ” and probably still did. There were a fair number of shows put on at the hall in 1971, but I think the room was just for rent. The Flamin’ Groovies, a San Francisco band from the mid-60s who had stuck with their British Invasion sound, were likely the promoter. We are here to make people happy, thank you for your business.
