Description

Joe Cocker 1972 Tuscaloosa, Alabama Concert Poster. ERRATA: We initially listed this as a 1978 concert poster. It is, indeed, from 1972. We regret the error.

A light blue poster for a Joe Cocker performance at Memorial Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Cocker always let things rip when he stepped up to the microphone (and was even OK with being lampooned by John Belushi on Saturday Night Live), so the image provided here - re-worked from the cover of his debut album, With a Little Help from My Friends - gives you all you need to know about how powerful Cocker was.

One delightful aspect of this poster is its provenance... it was obtained directly from a University of Alabama student at the time who worked on, and attended, the show. First time Heritage has ever had the pleasure of offering this. Measures 12 ½" x 18 ¾". In Very Good Plus condition with tape adhesive on the verso, soiling/toning in spots, staple holes, and creasing. COA from Heritage Auctions.
