The 1974 Ann Arbor Blues & Jazz Festival “In Exile” is one of the most historically significant events in American music history – and one of the most politically charged. The Republican majority on the Ann Arbor City Council banned the festival from the city, citing “undesirables” and an influx of dope. Clair College in Windsor, Ontario offered its Griffin Hollow Amphitheater as an alternative, the festival went ahead – but not without a fight. The FBI and law enforcement officials turned back cars at the border, searched vehicles, arrested anyone found with drugs, and even prevented festival co-producer John Sinclair from entering Canada. Against all of this, the music was, by all accounts, transcendent. James Brown and Sun Ra on the same Friday night bill. BB King closing Sunday. John Lee Hooker in the afternoon. This is not merely a concert poster – it is a primary document of American blues, jazz, and civil liberties history. This poster is documented and catalogued in The Art of Rock – the definitive reference guide for serious concert poster collectors – as plate 4.199. It was produced by Rainbow Multi-Media in association with CKLW Radio and St. This piece is appropriate for Heritage Auctions, major blues and jazz memorabilia collections, and dedicated concert poster collectors.

Rob Zombie House Of Blues Concert Poster Rare The Concert That Never Was

Rob Zombie – House of Blues, New Orleans Concert Poster dated 8/29/05, signed by the Artist (2005). This now-extremely scarce poster has quite a story to tell. Created for a Monday night performance at New Orlean’s famous House of Blues, the show — and in fact the entire city — was canceled out by the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. The artist, Allen Jaeger, barely made it out of town with only a few possessions, including this silk-screened poster. Jaeger’s shop was next to one of the cities levees; it was leveled by the storm and the subsequent flood. With most copies of this poster for “the show that never was” destroyed, this will be a rare opportunity for one lucky collector. Size is 20″ x 26″, and is in Excellent condition (please note the “water marks” noticeable in the upper lettering are actually part of the printed design, and not a flaw). Signed by the artist. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ABOVE DESCRIPTION COMES FROM A. JAEGER AT THE BOTTOM RIGHT.

Lippman and Rau turned the tour into an annual event and, fortunately, arranged for their artists to appear on a series of television specials recorded for German television.
