How can a reliable 'full list' ever be established? Did Keith employ someone (maybe Bill?) to jot down everyone who turns up? It seems an impossible, and somewhat odd, thing to compile, anyway.

I don't think it is Clapton. Maybe Marshall Chess. I looked up pictures of Clapton in 1971 and he looked different than there. May be I am wrong.

The Villefranche-sur-Mer local constabulary were definitely there.

I agree! These guys were wasted at a never-ending house party half a century ago!

The other day I ran across that Willie Nelson concert where Keith appears and sings "We Had It All." Watching that performance I cannot help but think of the photos of young Keith and beautiful Anita in the south of France in '71.

Why is anyone interested in who was there? Almost none of those people on the list would have added anything to the recordings.The only one Iwould be interested in would be Gram Parsons.He is the only one who might have added something musically.I would love if he and Keith had recorded any music they played together.

It's interesting from a historical pov. And everything that someone experiences has an effect on what they do, artistically included, even if it isn't easy to understand what those specific effects were.

I bet Swayed1967 will swear that Patti was there. Since Swayed is so into fake news and spewing lies.

Marshall Chess is a good guess...looks a bit like him. Definitely not Slow Hand

The photo is definetely from Nellcote, the floor is quite recognizable and Keith wears that shirt and those shoes in many other pictures from Nellecote. And it's not Jimmy Miller. The hair looks similar, but in all photos of Jimmy Miller he has a moustache but not a beard. This is one of the few photos of him from Villefranche in 1971:


It COULD be Marshall Chess. I know there is one photo of him from Nellcote with Anita where he has a beard like that one in the photo above, but I can't find it now. But this is how he looked bit later (and shaved) at Sunset Studios, LA, when going through the album art based on Robert Frank's photos:


Could it be Terry Southern who visited Nellcote and looked like this on the STP/Exile tour in 1972 with Keith? Certainly the hair and the beard look similar.

I don't think that's Jimmy Miller. He was bigger, and different forehead. Although JM is a much better call than Clapton. I thought M Chess.
But I agree - that doesn't seem like Nellcote. artwork, floor, Keith' and Tony's hair and clothes are wrong.
Definitely not Moroder.

It IS Nellcote. Just look at the floor:



And in this photo, you'll see Keith at Nellcote on that very floor with the same very shoes that he wears in the picture we are discussing:

The Clapton image is from la Salle de Sejour at Nellcote.
Its from May 13th or 14th 1971.

It has been identified as Clapton by Dominique Tarle who shot it, but I agree its a bit odd perspective. However, Tarle has two other shots of Clapton the day before, in St Tropez on Jaggers wedding, with the same haircut and beard.

Want to congratulate steffiestones for creating such a fun/nerdy detective work style thread, although it is probably impossible to get to the bottom of it. Today it seems there are as many people saying they were at Nellcote as Woodstock.

Not to be obscene but the most eye-catching part of that picture for me is Keith's crotch...

Yeah. Some chase fame and riches but all a man really needs to be happy in this life is for women to notice he's hung.

As a reference, this is a picture of Eric Clapton anno 1971.

So, Eric Clapton visiting Nellcote around the time we have the first image of Richards with the still stock 1953 Telecaster could indicate Clapton brought Richards a present as has been mentioned.

According to Ted Newman Jones he bought the Tele at Gruhn's, but I always thought this picture was earlier than when TNJ arrived at Nellcote:
