This is supposedly Debbie Harry in 1968.

I would have guessed that from the face, but not the hair color.

After being married to a woman and raising two others, I'm convinced there isn't an (American) woman alive who even knows what her natural hair color is anymore.

Run D.M.C. don't look too happy.

I'm currently listening to a audiobook history of Def Jam records and how the business started. According to that book, the Beastie Boys at that age were incredibly obnoxious in real life. Nice enough and sometimes fun, but obnoxious. Maybe RunDMC (and Jay) were ready to get that shoot over and get out of there.

Thanks for the info. That makes sense.

That reminds me of the time, during a business trip, I visited an ex-co-worker in Manhattan 25 years ago. In his small cramped Manhattan apartment near the WTC, he had books in his kitchen cabinets, on the counters, and even in his oven. He was a writer/editor (then at the NY Times) and had probably a few more books than most people, but not ALOT. He joked that all Manhattanites who could afford it did not cook and stored things other than pots, plates, and food in their kitchens. At least his fridge had food in it.

You and Nicky clearly are on some great news/photo feeds - I only get stupid stuff about (redacted political content)

Hollywood & Vine, 1944. That's Ginny O'Connor, at the time a member of Mel Torme's vocal group, The Mel-Tones. She would go on to marry Henry Mancini, a marriage that would last 43 years until his death.

I miss old-timey drugstores like the one in the background.
