jj--thank you kindly

it's funny, i started this an exercise to sort of bring their myth down in my head - these are just average, every day places, right? But the more I do it, for me, the more their myth grows.

thanks, Schil- ah, the Vet

Here are a couple of more I cobbled together

HB-You posts are a great addition to this forum. All the best with the writing, photography, and raising those kids to be rock n rollers. Big Cheers to you mate!

fiftyamp--- this is where i'd flag the bartender and say, "fiftyamp's next one is on me"

thanks, mate--that means a ton (x 100)

what a great idea! i get a strange feeling when i look at these "where they were" photo's... time goes by so fast...

i like the "TOTA flatbed kickoff frenzy" photo's

i will take some Now & Then pics of my "Backyard" the GOFFERTPARK in NIJMEGEN and post 'em here!

lq -

the fireplace is in westchester county, ny--the "then" is from people magazine

i grew up right near there -

follow me here, people - see that wall from the shot at left - the opening credits of The Andy Griffith Show? It's the same wall that extends behind Brian - and you can see it at the bottom of the "now" photo

by the way, if you're interested, the big hits cover is franklin canyon, la - also where Simon & Garfunkel shot the Sounds of Silence cover

this one is weird - but true -

HB- So the place they shot the cover for TSMR is a Costco?
WHat city was that in? It's near NYC, right?

TK--yeah, just north of the city up in Westchester county. The place where they shot was actually a production house famous for creating lenticular (layered image) buttons and things for politicians--so they shot lots of (then) cutting edge "3-D" images. They were literally the only place in the states at that point equipped to take that picture in the format required. It's no longer a studio but a restaurant supply place--but the structure is original and based on some michael cooper outtakes I looked at, based on that door in the back, this is the approximate site of the photo.
