I know I posted many of these photos in a post last year, but they were crappy scans from my then-crappy scanner (this one is better, but I still need to invest in something really fantastic at some point). All photos were taken by Michael Cooper in the Joshua Tree desert. This is one of my all-time favorite Stones/Marianne/Anita photo sessions (not that they were posed, but you know what I'm saying). They're just gorgeous. I especially love the last one, of Gram dancing (it's no secret that Gram Parsons is one of my favorite men that's ever lived). Doing drugs, playing music, and gazing off into the sunrise. Love it.
all photos = my scans
Amazing scans. Would love to have been there!
ReplyDeleteI really like the one of Gram in the sun. You can really see his beautiful hands with those extraordinarily long fingers, which he told Miss Pamela he thought "were sewn on by God."
Beautiful man.
