Thanks for reviving this thread, it's fascinating.

Wonderful, imaginative, dedicated project Schillid. I salute you!

LA has always been home turf for me and I am...or was...quite familiar with the locations and the uh...personnel. Main Street is pretty dicey these days.

Really, this is one the top five threads ever of IORRdom in my opinion. (And I'm not sure what the other 4 are!)

If you visit LA, I'd be glad to give you the full Bel Air scenic tour.

This continues to be a real work of art! Thanks again for putting it together and keeping it going.

Just some amazing research. Nice work.

One question, is that really Tony Funches? It doesn't look like him to me, but the picture isn't all that clear. And I'm kind of bad with faces.

I just re-read the entire thread; IMO one of the greatest threads ever on IORR.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICK

The Complete Film Works. Vol 3: Keep Busy, About Me: A Musical
by Robert Frank
STEIDL Robert Frank

Robert Frank’s significant contribution to photography in the mid-twentieth century is unquestionable. His book, The Americans, is arguably the most important American photography publication of the post-World War II period, and his photography has spawned numerous disciples, as well as a rich critical literature. However, at the very moment Frank achieved the status of a “star” at the end of the 1950s, he abandoned traditional still photography to become a filmmaker. He eventually returned to photography in the 1970s, but Frank, as a filmmaker, has remained a well-kept secret for almost four decades. Robert Frank The Complete Film Works fills a long overdue gap by presenting every one of Frank's more than 25 films and videos, some of them classics of the New American Cinema of the 1950s and 60s.

Keep Busy "I am filming the outside in order to look inside," Robert Frank once said about his aesthetics. In Keep Busy his chosen home of Nova Scotia serves for the first time as the “outside” in an examination of the “inside.” The protagonists’ astounding verbal gymnastics and often incomprehensible interactions tend to descend into nonsense, and with the syncopated rhythm of its action and dialogue, this film is reminiscent of the playful and parodying elements of the Beat fantasy Pull My Daisy. The interweaving of documentary and fiction with the syncopated rhythm of its action and dialogue presents an absurd buzz of activity reminiscent of Beckett’s abstract comic grotesque.

About Me: A Musical “My project was to make a film about music in America…. Well, f*ck the music. I just decided to make a film about myself.” Robert Frank’s self-portrait is a film about music that repeatedly poses questions concerning artistic expression and the function of memory. Frank himself introduces an actress as “the young lady that is playing me.” She throws a stack of photographs onto the bed and says with disgust, “That’s my past.” Despite the apparently autobiographical nature of the film, Frank, the immigrant, regards his story as a collective one. The film teaches temple musicians in Benares, India, “hope freaks” in New Mexico and inmates in a Texas prison. “That’s me,” Frank says when an old-fashioned film projector shows him as a small child. An interview of passers-by completes the circle: “If you had a camera and some film, what would you shoot?” A street musician answers, “About myself,” and starts playing a classic number. “Those were the days, my friend.”

Well done Schild!!!
The tune that comes to mind for this is>>>

Hey let him follow you down
Way underground, wind and he's bound
Bound to follow you down
Just a dead beat right off the street, bound to follow you down

Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
And dressing rooms filled with parasites
On stage the band has got problems
They're a bag of nerves on first nights

He ain't tied down to no home town
Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless

Well his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away, steal your heart away

How could I forget to show that ?

A great album cover
A great photographer
A great rock n roll band
A great album

Not much inspiration with their most recent album artwork...

Now when I look at the Exile sleeve it's obvious that those pics are video stills. But I never noticed that before.

I agree, schillid, most of their later album artwork has been pretty lame. Maybe Some Girls was their last really creative record sleeve. Tattoo You had a cool front cover, but the idea was pretty simple. For some reason their best album designs ended up on their best albums.

This thread is dynamite. Does anyone know the address of the house on Stone Canyon?
