One of the most musically eclectic alt rock bands to ever come out of Los Angeles the great FISHBONE are showcased on this original poster from late 1988. Included in support was an early appearance by Living Colour. Their debut album had just been released several months prior with heavy success from their breakthrough song "Cult of Personality". The electric guitar work by the ever talented Vernon Reid is nothing short of incredible! This original poster was designed by artist Mike King. Unlike many of the most popular and sought after concert posters from the 1960’s and 1970’s there were no official Reprints of these posters that are still readily available in big quantities today. This means collectors are forced to chase down the few surviving Original First Printings like this one here.
