i think Vox12String's photo host was just having a temporary spasm, but here is is anyway, cc:
- Manchester august 1964, courtesy of Vox12String
isn't that a beautiful photo?! LoFL: Keith with a Strat in 1964 - i am thrilled!
talking it over with BrownEyedGirll today, we theorized that maybe he used it in Manchester because his usual guitar
got trashed at that riot in Blackpool at the end of july.
that matching pair of pretty blue Strats really seems like it must have been some promotional deal
that Brian and Keith took to about as eagerly as they took to those matching houndstooth jackets. :E
(by the way, it turns out that same photo's on page 145 of Rolling With the Stones, but cropped differently,
and you can barely see Keith with the Strat. Bill's got the Manchester gig dated august 9th, not the 10th,
but ... oh who cares, it's Keith with a Strat in 64!)
