Happy birthday Stephen Stills 🎂
📷 Graham Nash, 1969
Nash took this photo in a motel during the recording of Déjà Vu. He mentioned they still needed an opener for the album, & the next day Stills said 'Hey Willy, listen to this!', & played him "Carry On".

Stephen Stills by Henry Diltz
Looks like that giraffe has been through some hard times.

Remembering George Martin on his birthday 🎂
📷 Richard Faulks, 1997
"I thought, O.K., we’re all taking photographs of an existing event. But we don’t have to make a photograph; we can paint. And that prompted me to experiment."

George Martin by David Magnus, 1965
"While they were having their tea break, I put down a baroque piano solo which John didn't hear until he came back. What I wanted was too intricate for me to do live, so I did it at half speed, then sped it up."

John Lennon & George Martin listen to playback, in this photo by Frank Hermann from 1967. Sophisticated recording equipment!
Some day I should put together a #playback thread; I love the staring-into-space looks of the musicians, producers & engineers.

- David Thomson

This was taken during the filming of The Lost Weekend, 1944, by Jerry Cooke. That *may* be Billy Wilder behind him.
