Brian and Linda Keith, 1968.

[www.recordmecca.com]

The price seems a bit steep.
Linda has never sold her "story" as far as I am aware - all credit to her, though she has "contibuted"to a couple of Keith's biographers.
Her relationship with Brian was pretty short lived-but she was with Keith for around 3 years(1963-66). Suprising , but I don't recall ever seeing any photos of them together?

It's a bit hard to tell which one's Brian amongst all that fur. lol

smile: that's quite a statement coming from a Hairball!
the stage shot is quite nice - i wonder if that's from Linda Keith's recently-auctioned collection as well

Can I be honest?

I really don't recognise Brian in that picture.

I know which one he is, but would never of guessed without some kind of reference to what the picture is.

In the description of the auction it says the Polaroid was shot in Ethiopia, why the hell are they both wearing fur coats and hats???

>> why the hell are they both wearing fur coats and hats??? <<

just to show off, maybe?
no no i mean: maybe that's just an error and they meant England, for example - one of those countries that start with E

I confess too that on first glance I didn't realize that was Brian, it looked like a girl.

Did anyone ever wear one of those kinds of coats? They look like they were REALLY smelly.

I think they would be very smelly too. If real fur is not cleaned or taken
care of properly then they really DO smell horrible!

When did Brian visit Ethopia? I know he spent time in Morocco but I've never heard of a trip to Ethopia.

LoFL - but why assume they weren't cleaned or taken care of properly??
shades of "those smelly longhairs" ... Brian was famously fastidious, wasn't he?

Certain shots of Brian sitting with Asian looking people, also in front of some temple/building were credited as being in Ethiopia, but they are most likely to have been taken in Ceylon circa late 1967.

His majesty, with all due respect, Ceylon is no longer part of the empire. The local people have decided to call their island Sri Lanka.

it was Ceylon when Brian was there with Linda Keith, though.
i remember the thread about that photo, HM - was it the same website making the mistake?

found it: [www.iorr.org]
it is indeed the same site - they (and/or their source) seem to have an Ethiopia fixation.

My apologies, I'm still struggling with the loss of that island!
