Went to this today, an excellent and very comprehensive retrospective, the first ever about Graham (1931-1991), the legendary concert promoter and manager who launched many rock careers through his Fillmore and Winterland theaters in the Bay Area and NYC.

Starts with Graham's escape from the Nazis as a 12 year-old unaccompanied child, evolves to 1965 hippie San Francisco with many original psychedelic concert posters, archival interviews and footage, album selections via headphones, wonderful original performance photos, a piece of a Hendrix smashed guitar, historic stage clothing, even a liquid light show! Continues through Woodstock, Live Aid (1985) and beyond. Was there for hours, it was fascinating.

Goes through October 11th. Admission $10. Highly recommended
