A Woman In Love
Hello to my 13,000 followers here! It’s been a while since I updated this page. Real life sometimes take precedence over online life. I will update whenever I can.
I wanted to wish everyone a happy holiday!
This painting of Pamela is called ‘A Woman In Love’ and it was done by La Uollas. I think it’s really beautiful. You can buy it from her following this link:

Pamela Courson on the cover of Drag Racing 1967
Well, she’s fashionably lean
And she’s fashionably late
She’ll never rank a scene
She’ll never break a date
But she’s no drag
Just watch the way she walks
And she’s fashionably late
She’ll never rank a scene
She’ll never break a date
But she’s no drag
Just watch the way she walks
She’s a twentieth century fox
She’s a twentieth century fox
No tears, no fears
No ruined years, no clocks
She’s a twentieth century fox, oh yeah
She’s the queen of cool
And she’s the lady who waits
Since her mind left school
It never hesitates
She won’t waste time
On elementary talk
‘Cause she’s a twentieth century fox
She’s a twentieth century fox
Got the world locked up
Inside a plastic box
She’s a twentieth century fox, oh yeah
Twentieth century fox, oh yeah
Twentieth century fox
She’s a twentieth century fox

The story behind the photo shoot with Pam

The Santa Monica Gentleman’s Club
and the Nitro Garage
By Tom Jobe and Don Prieto
Photo scan by Stan Weber
“This picture of the Bandel brothers and the “Surfers 2” car we sold them was taken in the alley behind the “Gentleman’s Club,” next door to the Red Apple Motel garage where we worked on our car. Just as the picture was going to be shot of the Bandel brothers and the car, one of the lovely young ladies who worked at the club came by on her way into work. We asked if she might like to be in the photo. She graciously agreed. Also, if this picture was just a little wider on the right side you would see the water faucet where we “flow tested” all our fuel injectors.
Our garage was in this alley that ran right through the middle of the Red Apple Motel. The prominent local patrons of the “Club” slithered down the alley so as not to be seen by their wives or the respectable citizens of Santa Monica. These guys coming in and out of the club would see us working on our car and stop to ask only one of two questions, “How much did it cost?” or “How fast does it go?” We had a contest going amongst ourselves to see how far we could stretch the story; 300 mph was easy! But 600 mph was a tough sell. You couldn’t BS’em too much on the cost since they were the guys who owned the whole town.
A little history on this cover shot. I had just gotten my Hasselblad and I showed up at the Surfers garage in Santa Monica to do this feature. We rolled the car into the parking lot next door and I shot the feature shots. I then looked for something interesting. The girl in the photo was walking by with the guitar under her arm. She was a waitress at the “Other Ball,” a topless bar on whose property we were shooting. She sat for one shot and handed Richie Bandel the guitar to put behind the car. He assumed the pose and I pulled the trigger. She stood up, picked up her guitar, and left. No model release, no name, no nothing. Ralph loved the shot and put it on the cover. For you photo detectives, this is full frame two and a quarter transparency.”

Jim’s friend Agnes Varda has died
Agnès Varda, a groundbreaking French filmmaker who was closely associated with the New Wave — although her reimagining of filmmaking conventions actually predated the work of Jean-Luc Godard, François Truffaut and others identified with that movement — died on Friday morning March 29th at her home in Paris. She was 90.
Her death, from breast cancer, was confirmed by a spokeswoman for her production company, Ciné-Tamaris.
I know I’m a few weeks late to announce this but for personal reasons I couldn’t go online to post this sooner.
