This original poster has just emerged from a recently unearthed and long held collection of Boston Tea Party material owned by a long time collector and participant of the New England music scene! 

 

The king of the blues B.B. King is one of the most cherished musical icons of the century. The late great American Treasure introduced a sophisticated style of guitar soloing based on fluid string bending and shimmering vibrato that influenced many later electric blues guitarists. This poster was produced for a 3 night run of shows in Boston during January 1970. Cold Blood and the J. Geils Band were supporting. Ever since the legend's passing B.B. King material has been skyrocketing in value and desirability. 

 

The historic Boston Tea Party was located at 53 East Berkeley Street in the South End from 1967-1969 before moving to its new location at 15 Lansdowne Street through 1970. Material from the Boston Tea Party is ALWAYS coveted by collectors and music fans alike!
