New Jimi Hendrix Rock Art Show Poster
Baron Wolman, Rolling Stone Magazine's first chief photographer, designed this amazing fine art poster exclusively for the Rock Art Show. Wolman comments, "This shot of Jimi Hendrix is my absolute favorite live action photograph of a musician at work. It was taken at the Fillmore West in San Francisco in February 1968 and was the first time Jimi played a concert for legendary rock promoter Bill Graham."
The poster is hand signed by Baron Wolman and measures 20" x 24". It is available for a limited time for $75.00 plus shipping.

Bob Masse Poster on American Idol
Bob Masse's classic 1967 poster of the Doors in Vancouver popped up in an unexpected place this week. American Idol finalist Adam Lambert was wearing a T-shirt with Masse's Doors poster on the front while he was speaking with Slash from Guns & Roses. The Doors poster is part our Rock Art Show. Masse was thrilled when we called him and told him the news. Masse's posters have been featured in many films and tv shows. His poster of U2 was featured in the film "Knocked Up" and his Kinks poster was in the film "Music & Lyrics."

MINNEAPOLIS WAS WARM FOR THE ROCK ART SHOW
Even though temperatures were below zero in Minneapolis, the warmth of the KQRS crew made us feel comfortable. Now in its fourth year, the KQRS Classic Rock Art Show is set up inside Macy's in Downtown Minneapolis. For those who are not from the Midwest, the location of our set-up was where Mary Tyler Moore threw her hat up during the opening sequence of the sitcom.
