I: “Did the members of the band comment with you on the shots?”

Neal Preston: “Funny you ask. I always thought that Jonesy and Bonzo never even looked at the tryouts. Robert would make some observations: ‘I like it. I don’t like it’. Jimmy would comment laconically, like: ‘Crow’s feet’. He was worried about crow’s feet and bellies, ‘Look here. Look there.’ A famous anecdote, moreover true, tells of one evening when I went to Jimmy’s suite to show him a series of color slides. With the huge carousels on the projector, I gave a show in the corridors of the hotel. We used a large blank wall as a screen and we looked at the images. Jimmy rejected all the impeccable ones, the most beautiful ones, the ones that in my opinion were perfect, technically successful shots. He preferred the more bizarre ones, the ones with a spectral aura... I’ve never managed to figure out what he liked. He seemed to change his mind from hour to hour. He wanted to look handsome and charming, then he wanted to give a strange and dark image of himself... Well, I didn’t understand his choices. At one point I turned off the projector and asked him: ‘Tell me which ones you like. Give me some pointers, because I feel lost.’ And Jimmy replied: ‘I seek power, mystery, romance and the hammer of the gods.’

final rehearsal for the 1975 american tour. metropolitan sports center; january 17 1975.

CYNTHIA: …. These rehearsal photos. You just got in and started taking pictures? NEAL: Of course. Of course. Well, I wasn’t shy. I walked in already taking pictures and I remember they were playing ‘Custard Pie’. They also played ‘The Wanton Song’. Don’t ask me how I remember that.
