Mikey wasn't the only Stereophile staffer to explore the limits of hirsutism at the end of the 1960s. This was my 1971 passport photo.

You remind me of Bill Oddie from the Goodies in this pic!

Who is this serial killer? Who am I? My world just collapsed. You should see the look on my face: fear, shock, awe, and all sorts of befuddlement and wonder. I'm so confused right now.

We all had long hair back then, Stephen. It was the LAW!

That's great - looks like Grand Funk Railroad's new bassist!

Very cool look, John. If I were some groovy british R&R'l band leader in the 60's, I'd hire you as my bassist--on the spot--without an audition. Like Greg Brady, you fit the vest! (Not to take away anything from any natural rhythm you might have.)
