This vintage and rare original program is from the 1964 Forest Hills Music Festival held in New York City. This piece has significant importance in the world of rock music during that era because of THE BEATLES! The fab four played on 8/28 and 8/29 in the hot dawn of the british invasion.    

 

As listed in the show program the impressive array of performers included Barbra Streisand Count Basie Woody Allen Harry Belafonte with Miriam Makeba Joan Baez Johnny Mathis and Peter Nero however most notable for obvious reasons were the shows The Beatles played on August 28th and 29th. 

 

Also included in this 60 page program are artist biographies and LP advertisements for the listed performers including an ad for The Beatles "A Hard Days Night" film. A real piece of musical history! Vintage concert programs from the 60’s are harder to find with each passing year. As quantities of available programs decrease the more collectible they become.
