This poster features the ‘56 Chevy hood ornament that was
featured on the controversial front cover of the Blind Faith album cover. JVH
was commissioned to produce the commemorative poster for the Eric Clapton/Steve
Winwood reunion concerts that were staged at NY’s Madison Square Garden in
February (25-26 & 28) of 2008.
These are the same first-edition posters that were sold
UNSIGNED (but numbered) at the venue, with one big exception – these are SIGNED and NUMBERED
by JVH!
Please note – these prints are from the artist’s own reserve
collection, so when they’re gone, they’re gone!
John Van Hamersveld, well-known for his psychedelic poster work on the West Coast (remember his great Jimi Hendrix and surf culture posters done in a style similar to this?), created this commemorative prints for the Clapton/Winwood 2008 reunion show that took place at NYC's famed Madison Square Garden October . Loyal Clapton, Winwood and Blind Faith fans will find this special print right perfect for their home or office music listening area...
The three performances at MSG were taped and packaged on
CD/DVD as Clapton & Winwood: Live
From MadisonSquareGarden.
Fans were treated to samples of the duo’s work together in
Blind Faith (“Presence of the Lord”, “Glad/Well..All Right: and “Can’t Find My
Way Home”), some of their respective band and solo efforts (Winwood with “Pearly
Queen” and “Dear Mr. Fantasy”, Clapton with “After Midnight” and “Crossroads”) and
songs by their mutual friend Jimi Hendrix, including “Changes” and awesome
versions of “Voodoo Child” and “Little Wing”. It seemed clear that the two
enjoyed working together, enough so that they decided to do it again in 2009!
