Headlining the 1967 Fillmore Summer Series was rock's biggest new star, the Jefferson Airplane. Opening was a previously unknown performer, Jimi Hendrix - that is, until the Monterey Pop Festival three days earlier.
The next night, June 21, the Airplane asked if they could open for him! "... Jimi took the town by storm," Bill Graham.
