Rare signed handbill for a Jimi Hendrix concert held at the Capitol Theatre in Cardiff, Wales, on April 26, 1967, 5.5 x 9, signed and inscribed on the reverse in blue ballpoint, "to Susan, Love & Happiness forever, Jimi Hendrix," who has added "to" below. Includes an amusing e-mail from the original recipient, which reads, in part: "I was on my way home from school and happened to look towards a lake near where I lived and Jimi Hendrix was in a rowing boat. His roadey was actually doing the rowing. He rowed over towards the bank where I was standing and Jimi signed the flyer. I asked him to dedicate Hey Joe to me (as I was going to the concert that evening) and after he sang it, he said it was for Sue who I met this afternoon."Buried behind the chart-topping Walker Brothers, Cat Stevens, and Engelbert Humperdinck, the Jimi Hendrix Experience received modest billing on their stop at CardiffÂs Capitol Theatre on April 26th. By the time they returned for their second show there in November of the same year, 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. A remarkable early handbillÂuncommon and sought-after in its own rightÂfrom just months before HendrixÂs rise to rock stardom.Top edge bears a collector's date notation. In very good condition, with trimmed bottom edge, scattered light creasing, multiple horizontal folds, and a thin strip of old tape residue to the top edge. Comes with a modern photo of Hendrix sitting backstage on the opening night of the Walker Brothers with Cat Stevens, Gary Leeds, and Engelbert Humperdinck; and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.Format: Handbill
