Fillmore Auditorium 7/22-23/66

With its swirling, flaming letters, this Wes Wilson design captured the essence of the typical dance concert. Headlining the show was The Association, who had recently released the single, Along Comes Mary, which hit #7 on the Billboard charts and led to the release of the group's first album later in the year. A song from that album, Cherish, became the first #1 hit for the group.
