57 years, 6 months and 25 days ago Saturday, April 29, 1967 London, United Kingdom Alexandra Palace The 14 Hour Technicolour Dream
|
Geoffrey Mason reports: The event was free speech fundraiser organized by International Times (or IT for short), which was a London underground newspaper in print only at the time. Now it exists on-line only. They did coverage of it leading up to the show and after April 1967. I've attached a nice large version of the cover of their special 14th Hour Technicolour Dream special (issue #12) here. You would probably want to link to their archived version of the issue: IT - International Times Archive [Link] I've also attached 2 clippings from the issue of previous (#11) issue of IT giving some details of the event. I've attached a newspaper advert for the event. I've attached two color flyers for the event, but I don't know who designed them. The first horizontal one certainly looks like Mike McInnerney's work, but I am not sure. BBC documentary series "Man Alive" has a video covering it that aired about 3 weeks after the event: [Link] There was a 90-minute documentary "A Technicolour Dream" about it released from Eagle Rock Entertainment in 2008: [Link]
