Another EARLY handbill! This event is not part of the BG cannon. This event was held just a week after Graham started up with the Fillmore - and at this point Graham did not have 100% control of the place. "The Musical Orgasm" was put on by a different promoter ( we do not know who was operating as "Stray Cat" - but it is apropos in light of the already vaguely established “Family Dog”- get it?). Collectors that are interested in the EARLY beginnings of the San Francisco Psychedelic Dance Concert Scene have found this issue of interest and of course for folks that collect FILLMORE it’s one of the earliest.
