^ Thanks, Raime! Now I see why that is a great photo to add to this thread.

I wonder how many pics are out there of musicians being hassled by authorities? Here's an old fave of mine that shows John Lennon as a regular stand up guy trying to protect his girlfriend. I used to think, Wow, look at the police harrassing John and Yoko, but on mature reflection, I guess the cops in the picture are mainly trying to protect J&Y from the paparazzi:-

Two threads get merged when they are both on the same topic, right?

If so, I'd like to make a case for merging this thread, "Favourite Musician Photos" with another thread I just rediscovered:-

https://www.musicbanter.com/general-...musicians.html : "Your Favourite Photographs of Musicians"

Anyone else notice a thematic commonality between the two threads ? Mind you, if any Mod does merge them, we'll have a real mega-thread of photos on our hands as both are pretty long already.

Makes sense. An aye from I.

How about a gif of Patti Smith and Morrissey hugging it out?

He's apparently a travel photographer residing in Hawaii nowadays.

Way to go Tom!

Good stuff! Love Eno. Own his entire discography including his stint with Roxy Music. He's quite simply a legend in my humble opinion.

And now for the photo.
