[Cover Title]: Leonard Ruskin Presents: The 1967 Forest Hills Music Festival

(Queens, New York: Elkay Printing Company), 1967.

Sold

Softcover. First edition. Quarto. Illustrated wrappers. About fine with some edgewear. Program for a concert at the historic Forest Hills Tennis Stadium in the summer of 1967 with performances by The Lovin' Spoonful, Judy Collins, Johnny Mathis with "Our Young Generation," The Monkees (in their first and only New York concert that year, with Dick Clark and the WMCA "Good Guys"), The Supremes, The Four Tops, Joan Baez, Simon and Garfunkel, Trini Lopez, The Sandpipers, Doc Severinson with his Sextet, and Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme. Although we can't confirm it, and he is not listed in the program, reportedly Jimi Hendrix made one of his early performances at the festival. One can only imagine the jam sessions between Jimi Hendrix and The Monkees. Very scarce. *OCLC* lists no copies.
