Item Details
Description

We are pleased to offer this original Traffic handbill from the Terrace Ballroom! In late 1968, Traffic featuring Steve Winwood temporarily disbanded. Guitarist Dave Mason left the group, and in 1969 Winwood joined the supergroup Blind Faith. Winwood and Traffic reunited in 1970 to release the critically acclaimed album John Barleycorn Must Die just weeks after this show at the Terrace, which re-launched their career. Big Brother & The Holding Company also performed. By this time, obviously, Janis Joplin was no longer with the band. Big Brother played this night at the Terrace with their new lead singer, Nick Gravenites.
Artist Rob Brown designed this beautiful image for this Salt Lake show. Brown did illustration work in YELLOW DOG COMICS #15 underground comix strip, and his work appeared in the first four (of five) issues of PROMETHEAN ENTERPRISES (Published in the SF Bay Area, between 1969 and 1974), an early underground comic fanzine that featured the work of R. Crumb, Rick Griffin, Victor Moscoso, Robert Williams, Spain Rodriguez, Rick Shubb, Bob Zoell and others). In addition, he created multiple front covers and strips for the Berkeley Barb (an infamous & notorious S.F. Bay Area underground newspaper) in the late 60s. He is also noted for authoring & illustrating the incredible "Dragon World" full color hardbound children's book in 2005, featuring 68 paintings of unique Dragons of all sorts.
