The balcony shot is almost surreal. Like a scene from Performance.

It was either June 26 or 27 1967 - depending on whether the Evening News was referring to something that had happened on the day of publication - a Wednesday. If it was the 27th it was the day that Mick and Robert Fraser were taken to Lewes prison to await sentencing for the Redlands bust. Methinks it was a dose of paranoia for Brian that prompted the display.

Good call, CousinC.
Coincidence. This morning I got the Performance DVD from Amazon.
I already had it on VHS but have'nt watched it for years. Will do tonight.

Bust 1967
But after meeting Jones, Jagger said: 'Brian wants to play music which is more his own rather than play ours. We have parted on the best of terms and I am sure we will continue to be the best of friends.'

As difficult as he could be, I do feel Brian didn't get a fair shake in life. Now people know that grass is less lethal than booze, or the legal stuff Brian got. Had he not been in fear to do grass as opposed to the other stuff I think he wouldn't have had such a fearsome decline. I think he could have continued being a productive Rolling Stone, despite Anita and Keith. Maybe the situation would have led to him leaving more by choice, but I don't see him getting so untogether. If you think about it, it wasn't until Mick and Keith got busted that he started acting really self destructive. Sure there were incidents before 1967 where he acted badly, but he didn't seem to be as out of control.

If I am not mistaken- that is Sgt Norman Pilcher leading Stash to the car. The only film I have seen of him. Thanks for sharing.

Phil, if you had a look by now - how is the quality of that Performance DVD? Just like the old videos or has there been some work on it? Any bonus? I was thinking of getting it as well.

I love looking up old haunts for the stones and other bands in google street maps. can't match this doorway to anywhere on courtfield road on street view nothing mathces with a balcony above the doorway and a window on the left that comes out to the same width of the balcony. Anyone else have any luck?
