OK, Sanne2 (our resident archivist) or anyone who wants to play...

Can you find me another version of this photo shoot? I love John's cool Hawaiian shirt. What era would you say this comes from?

It's either Tusk or Mirage. Sanne will know for sure. Thanks for posting. Never seen this before!

It looks Tusk to me.
Between Stevies hair, and Lindseys style, Id say im 90% sure Tusk

I must admit that this shot always amazes me; Christine is giving some extreme toe!

Curiosity Question:

What is in this picture? It looks like King Kong's Hand grabbing the top of the Empire State Building.

I think it's just goofball Tusk graphics. Do you have the vinyl album or the songbook? There are some shots of Lindsey & Mick pooping about (Mick's beard is shaven so it's 1978) in front of the Village Recorder, in the parking lot maybe. The outside of the studio seems to have (or have had) some sort of big billboard or something with the picture of the freeway overpass (I-5 & Antelope Valley Fwy) that crumbled in the 1971 Sylmar (San Fernando) earthquake.

Also, John was pretty hep to his Hawaiian shirts in the old days. He wore a Hawaiian shirt at the final concerts on the Tusk tour. You should be able to track down shots of him at those concerts with his pineapples & palm trees on his shirt, cavorting with Stevie & Lindsey, holding his bass, fingering it deftly, up & down, up & down the fret board, pluck pluck pluck, cluck cluck.
