This is a high quality litho reproduction of the poster used to promote the Toronto Rock & Roll Revival concert in 1969. This one day, 12 hour historic festival was notable for many reasons. The originally listed performers for the festival were Whiskey Howl, Bo Diddley, Chicago, Junior Walker and the All Stars, Tony Joe White, Alice Cooper, Chuck Berry, Cat Mother and the All Night Newsboys, Jerry Lee Lewis, Gene Vincent, Little Richard, Doug Hershaw and The Doors. The appearance of John Lennon, Yoko Ono and The Plastic Ono Band was not publicly known in advance and was not listed on the poster. Eric Clapton also appeared with the band onstage. The Plastic Ono Band's performance resulted in the release of their Live Peace in Toronto 1969 album.
It was at this festival that audience members first lit matches and lighters to welcome a performer on stage. Kim Fowley, the Master of ceremonies, came up with this as a means to ease John Lennon's stage fright. Fowley appeared on stage just before introducing the Plastic Ono Band and had everyone get their matches ready whereupon Lennon and company took the stage to a spectacular show of lights. This has since become a tradition in rock and roll, but was first experienced here. Also, it was at the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival that the Alice Cooper "chicken incident" took place. A chicken was reportedly thrown on stage and thrown back into the audience by lead singer Alice; a photo of which was sent by wire around the world. Various reports ranged from Alice biting the chicken's head off before returning it to the crowd, to Alice's own claim that audience members in the front of the crowd tore the poor bird to pieces in a frenzy of rock and roll pandemonium. This is a great poster for what had to be one of the great concerts of 1969.
