new year bash ( 1967 )
Bill Graham’s first New Year’s Eve Bash was a legendary, all-night affair with additional bands dropping by to supplement the advertised fare, and this second Bash continued the tradition. The music played ’til dawn, sometimes falling on the deaf ears of the somnambulent, and Graham and his staff served breakfast to those who stayed the night. The Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane were at all the early New Year’s concerts, and the Dead made it an annual gig for years. The grey letters cascading through the woman’s hair are silver on the original print.
