Of course, this stuff (and the attendant merchandising) is routine now, but this jacket was a predecessor for the major rock tour gear of the 1970s and beyond. Not available to the public, and one of the gems of my Stones collection. It was there, even if I was not.https://rpmlifeinanalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/keith.jpgKeith inside Exile, 1972Keith Richards plays a riff during the "Exile" recording sessions, Sunset Sound studio, spring '72.

The image ran on the cover of Sports Illustrated at the end of May '76, when the limping Red Sox were indeed sputtering (as the cover described them), Fisk was contemplating free agency and being blamed -- along with fellow contract holdouts shortstop Rick Burleson and star centerfielder Fred Lynn -- for Boston's woes.https://rpmlifeinanalog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/cwmc45.jpgcwmc45"Convoy" singer C.W.
