Rory Storm and The Hurricanes, c. 1999

An oil painting featuring Rory Storm and Ringo Starr backstage at the Top Ten Club in Hamburg.

'I can see it now, how Rory Storm would comb his hair non-stop for a whole hour. Ringo would be sat next to him and would mess around with a guitar for as long as Rory could comb hair. Whenever Rory asked Ringo, 'Do I look OK?' Ringo would look up, first at Rory then the mirror, and reply 'Yeah, great Rory, you're looking just great!' - Klaus Voormann 

In 1999, Klaus Voorman and Astrid Kirchherr collaborated on a book project with Genesis Publications, which focused on each of their respective media, in relation to their histories with The Beatles.  For the book, Klaus sketched countless "memory drawings" of his experiences with the lads, many of which ended up in the book, or became more refined paintings and illustrations.

Collector's Note:
This is a one-of-a-kind painting created during the production of the limited edition fine art book Hamburg Days in 1999, signed by Grammy Award-winning artist Klaus Voormann.
