I believe the leather trousers above predate the Barbarians tour (IMO, they look 1975-6ish).
Also, I think he's playing that Zemaitis pirate/skull guitar that went missing at some point in the late 70s
(prior to the Barbs tour). See with sssoul's thread for info about the guitar here: [www.iorr.org]

All of the above is right - the photo's from 1975. I wish I knew the photographer and the venue, but I don't.

Those backstage Barbarian shots are by Henry Diltz.
The shot of Keith and Mac doing Apartment Number Nine is by Ebet Roberts.
Please let's not forget to credit the photographers. It's their work. Thank you

You're welcome, my dear Plink.
As far as I know the book is still on - but I don't know very far, which is ... well, never mind! :E

Photo by Richard E, Aaron - his website: [www.rockpix.com]

Richard E. Aaron took some great pics in Oshawa. Here's what he had to say on the subject (from [www.mandremcorp.com]):

"The Rolling Stones. This shot was done in Canada. Keith got busted for drugs and as payment he had to do a free concert for the blind. I was one of the photographers, I think there might have been one other photographer that they let in, and I was shooting I guess I was about six feet away from the group. When I got to the venue I waked over to security and I said, hey, am I going to have any problems with the audience, I’ll stay low, and he started laughing, I said why are you laughing, and he said, well I guess that you don’t know that the first fifty rows are all blind people, (as this was a concert for the sighted I named the concert ‘the blind concert’) and he said you can stand, you can walk, you can do whatever you want nobody will see you. So I shot the whole show from six feet away, the stage was probably up to my stomach so I just sit there, I shot a lot of film, I think I shot eighty rolls of film that night."

Here is a quote from Richard E. Aaron's site regarding photographing the New Barbarians on tour:
"I was one of two photographers allowed to shoot the New Barbarians Tour. The rules were strict: If you go backstage your cameras could not. This was no camera trick: Keith actually looked quite healthy during this time. It helped that the show was excellently lit."

Note: I assume the other photographer Aaron mentioned above must be Henry Diltz, but Diltz took plenty of fantastic, candid backstage Barbs shots.

The one of Keith in purple (under the B&W tarmac shot) is by Henry Diltz.
The one of Ronnie under the watermarked Richard Aaron shot is also by Richard Aaron.
The one from the Largo show (Ronnie in his jumpsuit) is by Robert Sherbow.
The ones on the plane are by Henry Diltz of course.
And so on. It's not hard. Please post the photographers' names. It's their work.
