- 1993 i guess, by Anton Corbijn

Can't read the small box, is that famous voodoo on Keith's arm?

it's one of the 200 cats of the studio-owner (Eddie Grant)

thanks CindyC - apparently that's a Ken Regan photo
from Longview Farm in 1981, of course ...

I was actually was just going to look for the credit on that! You saved me a trip!

Keith's cat is called Voodoo
During the recordings for the new Rolling Stones album on Barbados,
Studio owner Eddy Grant gave his friend Keith Richards one of a total of 200 cats.

"KEITH'S CAT IS CALLED "VOODOO"
while the recordings of the new Stones record on Barbados, studio owner Eddie Grant
left his friend Keith Richards one of his 200 cats."

well all right! thanks open-g honey and rs1806 -
i thought that was supposed to be the Voodoo in that shot, so ... i'm glad it is!
the story i've heard is that Keith found the kitten huddling in the rain on the studio grounds
and brought it inside to dry off, then created a little nest for it, including (eventually)
a sign saying "Voodoo's Lounge". apparently it was Charlie who, when they were pondering album titles,
pointed at the sign and said "how about that"

I recall that fashion photographer Arthur Elgort also shot the Stones in 1981. Did Elgort shoot the Stones on horses at Longview Farm?
Does anyone recall those Elgort pics? I think they were in Life or Rolling Stone magazine.

hm ... is the one in the middle one of Elgort's, maybe?
i know Ken Regan took the one of Mick but i don't know who took the other two,
and i'd love to. that one in the middle is one Definitively Hot Photo.

The one in the middle appeared in the issue of Rolling Stone with Keith on the cover in '81. My copy was lost, so I can't check who the photographer is. I'm sure someone else here has it though.

That's Arthur Elgort behind Mick's bodyguard on the left:

Thanks with sssoul. Any idea about this one?

I think Keith should always wear white shirts. He looks really sexy in them.

>> Any idea about this one? <<
