197130702New York and Los Angeles: John Gibson Multiples 1971. First edition. Record LP. Very Good . Double LP audio record in gatefold sleeve. Association Copy INSCRIBED BY REICH TO FELLOW ARTISTS ATHENA TACHA AND RICHARD SPEAR in 1982. The first pressing of this recording was limited to 500 numbered copies and came with a leporello fouldout score as well as 100 Artist Proof AP copies. This copy is not numbered only inscribed and we suspect it to be one of the AP copies. This copy also lacks the leporello score that was issued with the signed/numbered edition. The gatefold sleeve has the title written on it neatly in ink by the recipient but is otherwise in very good to near fine condition with only some minor toning. Both records are also in superb condition very good or better showing only some very faint sleeve wear. A beautiful example of this important record from early in Reich's career and is very scare as an association copy. John Gibson + Multiples unknown books

It was a star-studded opening night and after party at Sardi's with Warren Beatty Andy Warhol Diane von Furstenberg Diana Vreeland Kurt Vonnegut Rex Harrison Yoko Ono and others in attendance. Unfortunately scathing reviews followed and after only four days and a run of ten performances the production closed on February 1 1974.<br/><br/>In 1970 John Phillips inspired by the 1969 Apollo 11 moon landing conceived of a space-themed musical project a space opera originally entitled "Space" and spent the next five years on the project in its various incarnations. In 1974 Phillips' wife Genevieve Waite persuaded Andy Warhol to produce the project as a Broadway musical with Warhol's collaborator Paul Morrissey slated to direct. The project was renamed "Man on the Moon" with Waite von Vooren and Denny Doherty slated to star. Reportedly two weeks before opening night co-producer Richard Turley fired Morrissey installing a more experienced Broadway director uncredited who changed everything casting stage directions songs and script. <br/><br/>Phillips would later used some of the songs from the musical for the soundtrack of the 1976 Nicolas Roeg film "The Man Who Fell to Earth" starring David Bowie.
