recent shot of Venice Perry
View attachment 7531411
That's actually Harry Perry, who has been a fixture on the Venice Beach boardwalk for decades. If that's a recent pic, it's good to see that he's still at it, but I was wondering if he's starting to slow down. I used to work down there in the 90's, and would see him all the time.

Here he is with another Perry, way back when…
 
Robert Ellis; in November 1976 I got a call from some mysterious voice telling me he was working with Scorpions, would I come down to the Marquee? Yeah, OK I said hastily, off I trotted. I took a couple of rolls of film and sent them off to the guy in Holland. Last I saw of those pics! The band unceremoniously dumped him out of the tour van on an Autobahn! All I have now is a few outtakes and this is one of them. Roth, an unknown air guitarist, Lenners, Meine, Buchholtz and Schenker lurking in the dark.
