Description

Rare handbill and ticket stub from Jimi Hendrix's first major UK tour

Two items: a vibrant original color 5.5 x 11.5 handbill for a concert featuring Jimi Hendrix, The Walker Brothers, and Cat Stevens at the Odeon Theatre in Leeds, England, on April 5, 1967, which features a lineup of The Californians, Compere Nicky Jones, The Quotations, and Engelbert Humperdinck as the special guest star; and an original ticket stub for the concert, 2.5 x 2.5, issued as “H36” for the “2nd performance.” In overall fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.

Buried behind the chart-topping Walker Brothers, Cat Stevens, and Engelbert Humperdinck, the Jimi Hendrix Experience received modest billing at the start of their first-ever tour in 1967. By year's end, they were one of the most sought-after tickets in live music, soaring high off the successful debut of Are You Experienced and their now-legendary performance at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival.
