In late 1974, I went to the WBAI-FM (NYC) Christmas Craft Show (which benefits the station) and found this great hanging stained-glass Rolling Stones logo (which I photographed in June, 1975). It’s about 10″ by 6″\u009d. I don’t recall what I paid for it, but it wasn’t a lot.<\/span><\/h4>\n

I still have it and still LOVE the Stones (who I photographed a half-dozen times).<\/span><\/h4>\n

The master of the house I was living in at the time was my roommate’s cat, Damien. You did NOT mess with Damien!<\/span><\/h4>\n

That house was in River Edge, NJ, and this picture was taken in my bedroom. I had acquired a folding metal record rack sometime in the early 70s from my hometown record store – the Teaneck Record Shop – when it closed. I used it until 1988.<\/span><\/h4>\n

The posters are 10cc and BOC (and if you don’t know who BOC is, look at the next picture). I got to shoot BOC the same year in the next town (Paramus) in the college where I was working.<\/span><\/h4>\n

The album artists I can make out in this less-than-optimally-exposed shot are: John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Neil Young, Rainbow, the Stones, Zeppelin, Hendrix, Robert Klein, two by the Tubes, Humble Pie, Frampton, Rick Derringer, Alice Cooper, Bowie, Be-Bop Deluxe (anybody remember them?), Aerosmith, Jo Jo Gunne, Lee Michaels, Mountain, Lou Reed, Springsteen, Joe Walsh, Johnny Winter and a rare-ish Zep booklet.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Only mellow, acoustic folk songs for me.<\/span><\/h4>\n

OK – so I didn’t actually take this March, 1975 picture myself, but I might have if I had a tripod with me that night. I was a big BOC fan and this show was in the gym of the college where I was a faculty member, so I got to sit in the front row and also take pictures on stage and in the dressing room (but you’ll have to go to my site to see those).<\/span><\/h4>\n
