I see that it has been a while since I posted a blog. Never mind, here’s something interesting I want to share.
A couple of weeks ago I received a message from Tima Surmelioglu. She said she had come across some pictures and thought I might like them. It just so happened that it was my birthday, and what a great surprise present they were. During the summer of 1977, Riff Raff was playing showcases that ultimately lead to being signed to Island Records. Tima was dating David Lanik, one of the guitarists in the band, and attended our shows and hung out with us during rehearsals. Her photos perfectly captured Riff Raff on stage as well as giving a candid behind-the-scenes look at a rock band at work. Thank you, Tima!
