Dickies

[78-06 01 Dickies Pool]

More than likely Stan contacted me to take photos. We went to the what is erroneously referred to the old Errol Flynn estate at the top of Fuller.

MY PHOTO, taken summer of 78

Attributed to the late Jules Bates on back of "Sounds of Silence" Christmas cover he shot. This is MY shot. Thanks to the folks at A & M who couldn't bother to credit it correctly. Fuck A & M art directors. Stan always says he sorry, they were in England when this was released. Not your fault, Stan! Love the Dickies.

That's Cherie the Penguin, front row left and Tony the Tiger, looking to his left. I hung with them and they are prominently featured in "Lexicon Devil," the excellent book on the Germs by Adam Parfrey. I still email Cherie, whom I loved to photograph.

[78-03-07 01 Dickies CPO Sharkey]

I heard about the shoot through the grapevine. Punks gathered at the Masque before going to NBC Studios in Burbank. I got on the phone and managed a photo pass. I was allowed to shoot for a few moments. Stan was so impressed I managed to get any shots. Now if I had advance notice . . . but that was punk. I always found out at the last minute and then hustled to get a photo pass. I didn't have many connections, was very shy, but this time it worked.

CPO Sharkey was a show starring Don Rickles, wherein his daughter was into punk. The only authentic thing about the show were the Dickies and the real punks, Alice Bag, Terry BagDad (Bags' drummer), Trixie, Spazz Attack and Kid Congo aka Brian Tristan. There were more, but they are all in this photo.
