I have had this autographed picture of Keith Richards for some years now and I'm curious to know exactly when, where and by whom this photo was taken. It looks to be from one of the Honolulu, Hawaii shows from January 1973 but I'm not sure which show and who the photographer was. I've tried google image and a few other avenues but so far have not come up with anything. Can anyone shine a light and provide the information I'm looking for? Thanks for any info you can give.

My first thought was Ken Regan.

I'm researching to confirm this.

Great pic, btw.

I believe that's the Nicaragua Benefit, not Honolulu.
In Honolulu Keith wore a striped shirt at one show, a dotted shirt for another show,
and the show where he was wearing that white shirt he had on dark trousers.

There were a bunch of photographers there, of course - I don't know if Ken Regan was one of them.

+1 with sssoul, must be the benefit right?

Sorry, b e i n g for the benefit of Nicaragua.

I thought at first it could have been Nicaraguan benefit but the video link below shows Keith wearing a different shirt. Keith could could have done a costume change or there was more than one show but neither seems likely as Keith isn't known for that and there was only one show for Nicaragua (that I know of)

Nicaragua Benefit Show

You mean that heavily patterned garment, I take it? That was a jacket, and Keith took it off at some point during the show,
as Stones tend to do with jackets. There are miles of photos from the Benefit of him wearing that silky shirt.
A couple of examples:


- Nicaragua Benefit, January 18th 1973 by Neal Preston


- Nicaragua Benefit, January 18th 1973 by Lynn Goldsmith

I see what you mean, withsssoul and I think you have definitively nailed where and when the photo was taken. Danke. Now the last piece of the puzzle? Who was the photographer?
