I enjoyed that article. Lots
I enjoyed that article. Lots of great background info on the Equipment Crewe & associated supporting Characters.
Maybe not totally in-depth, but quite a nice glimpse of that Era's scene from a Rock reporter's perspective.
I would agree that Jerry was not playing "Tiger" at the time of original article.

First read this around '79, a girl who lived above me knew I was into the band and had a copy.
And captioning a picture of Jerry playing Tiger "on stage, Wembley Empire Pool, London, April 7th 1972" is horrendous editing. They must have 20 year olds doing this stuff now.

The problem with that Tiger
The problem with that Tiger picture caption comes from the Getty Images stock photo site it came from, crazy that nobody caught that. Looks like Jerry also grew his finger back on that RS cover.

Ah, thanks for clearing that
Ah, thanks for clearing that up.
But Getty Images should be even more vigilant considering the way the go after suspected copyright infringers. If you're going to sue someone for using your images at least get the dates right.
