Elizabeth Taylor photographed by Gianni Bozzacchi , 1972 (x) Gianni Bozzacchi took this photo with a Leica M2 that Elizabeth had just given him. Her scene in X, Y and Zee (1972) called for her to run off camera, and he caught this image from his vantage point backstage. Richard Burton was so taken by the shot that he was moved to compose a short poem about it.

Cream - White Room (1968) HQ
MUNROWS RETRO
The autumn of 1968 was a time like no other during the decade of the 60's. If 1967 was the Summer of Love, 1968 was the Summer of Revolution ... everything reaching a saturation point beyond all imagination, and the music reflected it as well. Autumn 1968 was the culmination of everything the decade had ever produced, culturally, artistically, socially ... all crushed and condensed into the wildest musical season perhaps in history. It marked both a climax and a new dawn, with freedom of expression finally reaching its highest ascendancy.
Out of that wondrous autumn cauldron came a number of monster hits and songs, including the famous double-sided single by The Beatles, "Hey Jude" and "Revolution." Included in the matrix was this song by the short-lived super band from Britain, Cream. Their biggest and best hit in my opinion: "White Room."
The song was recorded over a series of sessions between July 1967 and June 1968, then released in August on the Wheels Of Fire double album. A shorter single edit was also created for AM radio play in September (USA) and in January 1969 (UK). In America, the song peaked at #6 on Billboard on November 9, 1968 and #5 on Cash Box on November 23, 1968. This is the album version, over five minutes in length.

“What made the Raincoats different from other bands at the time is that we really, really believed in a, kind of, punk ethos. I suppose the fact that we were women, and the fact that we had some inkling about what we wanted as women as well. We wanted things to be different. We didn’t want to have to wear short skirts in order to have people think what we did was great. There was a series of pieces about women in music at the time in glossy magazines, and they’d have pictures of all these all-girl bands and they all looked terribly glamorous. And there was a picture of us in funny old jumpers, looking like we’d just got out of bed and hadn’t brushed our hair.” |

My hands were literally trembling when I took this frame of Bob Dylan with Ronee Blakley backstage at The Roxy in 1976. I was a teenager and I was so nervous. Dylan could sense this so he shook my hand and did his best to make me feel at ease. He told me and I will quote him now, “you look like me”! He also was very curious to know how much I would make on the photos of him. That was almost 35 years ago and I swear, if I live to be a very old man, I will never forget my moments with Bob Dylan. NEVER!

King Crimson - Starless (1974)
....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
MUNROWS RETRO
Along with Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Procol Harum, and other progressive rock bands from Britain in the late 60's/early 70's, there was THIS group that I began to follow with interest at that time. King Crimson became yet another unique band I would be sharing with friends along with the above-mentioned and others. However, once In The Court Of The Crimson King and In The Wake of Poseidon became fond memories as a different sound began to emerge from the band in 1973, I pretty much gave up on ever hearing the sort of work that were the hallmarks of those first two LPs.
Then came the big surprise in summer 1975 when I purchased their album Red. Released in 1974, it was not well-received at the time, but it nevertheless became one of my favorites, and my friends and I placed it as highly as King Crimson's first two albums. One song in particular captured my attention more than any other on the LP: "Starless." It had that beautiful, haunting ethereal sound one could only find on the first two albums. To hear that wonderful sound again in 1975 was like being visited by an old friend. Bear in mind that the passing of three or four years to a 21-year-old in those shifting times was like a decade's passage or more to a much older adult. "Starless" (the final track on Red) was both a hello and a goodbye. Red would be the band's last studio recording of the 1970s before leader Robert Fripp temporarily disbanded the group.
The original lyrics and melody for "Starless" were written by the now late John Wetton (d. January 31, 2017) whose vocal is eerily similar in style to Greg Lake's (also recently deceased) in "Epitaph" from In The Court of the Crimson King. I essentially use the elements in the song that create serenity, tension, foreboding, free form jazz dance, and intense resolution to create a mood piece that agrees with these aspects in a visual manner. There may be a million ways to do this song .. this is but one.
