About the image

Gram Parsons, Taj Mahal, and Keith Richards hanging around in Laurel Canyon, Los Angeles, 1968.

The Rolling Stones came to LA to mix the Beggar's Banquet album with Jimmy Miller. During that time Keith hung around with both Taj Mahal and Gram Parsons - taking advantage of some of his free time to learn some of the "Nashville tunings" and other mechanics for Country Music. These sounds made a distinct appearance on the forthcoming albums.

The Michael Cooper Estate photographs are printed to order, so please allow 2-4 weeks for delivery. Each photograph will be numbered and marked by the estate.
