Clapton posed with his beloved guitars at auctioneers Christie's London saleroom this morning, June 1, and the instruments will go under the hammer in America later this month. The decision comes because Clapton has decided to take time out from his tough music schedule of albums and tours to spend more time working with recovering drug addicts. Some of the money raised from the sale will go to the treatment centre Clapton founded. A former drug addict and alcoholic himself, Clapton has become increasingly interested in helping people who find themselves in the same situation. Clapton, known as 'Slowhand' to his fans, came to prominence in the 1960s playing with groups like CREAM, THE YARDBIRDS and BLIND FAITH. But he almost lost it all, including his life, through drink and drug addictions. The methods that were used to save him, he now wants to help pass on to others in the same boat and he has spent a great deal of time and money helping fellow addicts and founded the Crossroads treatment centre in Antigua. It is estimated that the sale of around 100 instruments could raise as much as 750,000 US dollars for the centre. It will take place in Christie's New York branch on June 24. There will various Fender, Gibson, Martin and Guild guitars for sale. The most important item is 'Brownie', Clapton's much loved 1956 Sunburst Fender Stratocaster on which Clapton probably played the riffs to his most famous song LAYLA. RICHARD CHAPMAN, Christie's expert consultant on guitars, says this is an important collection for any serious rock music fan. Meanwhile it is a sad day for Clapton's long time guitar technician LEE DICKSON who has had the job of caring for the instruments.

Spetember 11, 2002 CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: SHOTLIST 1.Vs pictures of the individual Stones- 2.Sot Mankovitz : " This exhibition of my Rolling Stones pictures really begins in 1965, and covers the 23 years that I was the official unofficial photographer to the Stones up until 1967 when I was photographing the recording sessions for 'Satanic Majesties'. Then there is an interlude of several years, about 15 years, and then I did another session with them in 1982 and that is being shown in the gallery. That is art of the deluxe edition of the book." 3. vs photo's 4. Sot Mankovitz: " It was important to me to produce a book that could be collected by the ordinary fan, and I had ad a lot of letters of the past few years from people saying how much they wanted that so that is very important to me. The other thing that is very important was to try and get across the darker side of the Stones that I was recording at the time, and to try and get a more editorial and some more continuity to what I was showing. So the choice of pictures for the book and for this exhibition haven't been published before. Not in this form at least." 5. Performance ' Street fighting Man ' Rolling Stones 6. Sot Mankovitz: " I am not in the least surprised that they are still on the road. And I hope that they continue to play publicly for as long as the really enjoy it. I see no problem at all with them still playing after 40 years. I think it is absolutely fantastic and tremendous that they are still on the road. The fact is that they are one of the if not the great surviving rock and roll band." 7. Vs Pictures of Keith Richards 8. Sot Mankovitz: " I had a particular friendship with Keith Richards that I value to this day. We , at the end of the tour in 65, went on this fantastic adventure together. Everybody was going to go to Las Vegas and he didn't like the idea, and I didn't fancy it very much, and he invited me to go riding in Phoenix Arizona with him. We had already ridden on a couple of moments on other breaks during the tour, and we both shared a cowboy fantasy which I guess every British kid in the 60's had having been brought up on cowboy films. So he arranged for us to go to a dude ranch near Phoenix and we got horses and a guide and we went out into the desert. We camped under the stars and it was absolutely fantastic." 9. VS photo's MOSS GATHERS ROLLING STONES As the Rolling Stones embark on their regal 40th anniversary tour performing 100 concerts, a London photo exhibition recalls the days when the sullen-faced music rebels scandalized the UK in the swinging sixties. The exhibition, described as the most famous archive of the the Stones ever displayed, features the work of British photographer Gered Mankowitz, starting this week at the Proud Camden Moss gallery. As a hip London 18-year-old, having met and photographed Marianne Faithfull, her manager, Andrew Loog Oldham, was so impressed by the results that he invited him to photograph one of his other turns, The Rolling Stones. If music fans and musicians carry a composite image in their head of The Rolling Stones' street-fighting dandy look in the '60s, it'll be substantially composed of shots taken by Mankowitz. From '65 - '67, Mankowitz was on board as the Stones' unofficial-official visual chronicler, accompanying Mick, 'Keef,' Charlie, Bill and Brian through the hysteria of their 1965 autumn US tour, providing covers for their albums 'Out Of Our Heads' and 'Between The Buttons,' and gaining unique access to them in private. The relationship between Mankowitz and the Stones only ended when the band's relations with Oldham soured. But the split gave the photographer time to work with other legends of the era including Jimim Hendrix, Free, The Yardbirds and the Small Faces.

THE YARDBIRDS - SHAPES OF THINGS

TAPE_NUMBER: EF01/0234 IN_TIME: 14:23:41 LENGTH: 02:48 SOURCES: WARNER MUSIC VNR RESTRICTIONS: No re-use/re-sale of film/video/tv clips without clearance, music/performance rights must be cleared FEED: VARIOUS (THE ABOVE TIME-CODE IS TIME-OF-DAY) SCRIPT: xfa TITLE: ROD STEWART LOCATION: VARIOUS DATE: RECENT Since scoring his first number one hit with the enduring classic "Maggie May," Scottish rocker ROD STEWART has sold over 100 million records worldwide. But in recent years he has been making newspaper headlines more often for his private life than his music. Now, one of modern music's most distinctive voices is bouncing back with his new album, "HUMAN." From the infectious "I Can't Deny It" - the first single from the album - to the tender grooves of "Loveless" to the Macy Gray-penned "Smitten," the new collection is a another powerful addition to Stewart's considerable body of work. It also marks the first collaboration between Stewart and Atlantic Records. Stewart was drawn to work with Atlantic because of their association with such soul and R&B greats as Aretha Franklin, Otis Redding, Booker T & the MGs, "all the people I grew up listening to. So to be on Atlantic is a great honour." With its sultry R&B vibe and heart full of soul, "HUMAN" fits snugly into that Atlantic tradition. As its title suggests, the album stands as one of the singer's most earnest and emotive works. "I think there's a warmth in my voice on this album that hasn't been recorded before," he continues. "Maybe it's the choice of songs, as there's no real out-and-out rock n' roll. They're all mid-tempo numbers so it's a very warm record. Like a hot water bottle." "HUMAN" is executive produced by Rob Dickins, who performed similar duties on 1998's Stewart-produced "WHEN WE WERE THE NEW BOYS." Though the two have worked together for more than a decade, this is only their second "official" collaboration. Dickins brought together a host of today's hottest producers - including Mark Taylor and Brian Rawling (the team behind Cher's 1998 worldwide smash, "Believe") and Christopher Neil (Celine Dion, Mike the Mechanics) - to fashion a quintessential Rod Stewart collection of romantic R&B-infused pop. "I Can't Deny It," the album's first single, was produced and co-written by Rick Nowels (Madonna, the Corrs, Dido) and Gregg Alexander of New Radicals fame. A collection of top studio musicians - including guitarists Jesse Johnson (Janet Jackson, the Time) and Robbie MacIntosh (Paul McCartney, Pretenders, Kirsty MacColl); keyboardist Steve Pigott (Celine Dion, Mike the Mechanics); backing vocalist Sue-Anne Carwell (Christina Aguilera, Elvis Costello, Monica); and bassist Pino Palladino (Richard Ashcroft, Eric Clapton, Elton John) - was assembled for the "HUMAN" sessions. The album is further highlighted by electric contributions from ace guitarists Slash (on "Human") and Mark Knopfler (on "If I Had You"). "HUMAN" features a number of new songs including Raul Malo and James House's "To Be With You" (originally performed by Malo's much-admired contemporary country group, the Mavericks) and the lushly romantic "Soul On Soul," penned by Marc Jordan and John Capek, who wrote Stewart's 1991 smash single, "Rhythm of My Heart." "In choosing songs, usually you go on your first instinct," the singer says. "There's no magic wand waving. You either like a song or you don't. Lyrical content has always been extremely important with me, and of course a strong melody. The songs have got to have some sort of soul, something I can get my teeth into." Among the album's many highlights is a touchingly powerful rendition of "It Was Love That We Needed," a song written and originally performed by the late, great Curtis Mayfield. "Curtis sang this one when he was laying on his back in a hospital after his terrible accident. That's probably my favourite song on the album," Stewart claims. "HUMAN" also features a songwriting contribution from soul sensation Macy Gray, who co-composed the sparkling slow jam, "Smitten." Human is a very soulful album, according to Stewart "probably one of the more soulful albums I've done, because it does lean towards R&B - though in a very modern way. I'm very proud of it, and I hope my fans will enjoy it as much as I do." Rod Stewart's raspy, soulful voice has made him the rock generation's answer to Sam Cooke. Like Cooke, Stewart delivers both romantic ballads and uptempo material with conviction and panache. He really came into his own as the singer with the Jeff Beck Group, the guitarist's post-Yardbirds ensemble, formed in 1968. From there, Stewart graduated to the Small Faces. He and guitarist Ron Wood joined founding members Ian McLagan, Ronnie Lane and Kenney Jones in the wake of Steve Marriott's departure, and the Small Faces - which soon adopted the shortened name Faces - became an enormously popular touring group, rivalling the Rolling Stones for good-natured, sloppily ribald rock and roll. At the same time, Stewart launched a parallel career as a solo artist, developing a distinctive voice and persona over the course of a brilliant string of albums that included Gasoline Alley and Every Picture Tells a Story. His talent lay in his synthesis of American soul (Sam Cooke, Otis Redding) and folk (Bob Dylan, Ramblin' Jack Elliott) influences, into which he distilled his own life experiences as a busker and bohemian. Stewart's solo career effectively went into orbit with the 1971 release of "Maggie May," an enduring rock classic with a rustic, ramshackle style. However, it was with "Tonight's the Night," a seductive ballad that shot to #1 for eight weeks in 1976, that Stewart cemented an indelible bond with the listening public. He has charted hit singles and platinum albums in nearly every year since that time. A popular concert entertainer, he's best known for twirling mike stands and kicking soccer balls into the audience while strutting across stages in flashy garb. Stewart's discography includes some 36 albums. Many of the solo albums are regarded as classics. These include Atlantic Crossing, A Night on the Town, Footloose and Fancy Free, Every Picture Tells a Story, Never a Dull Moment and Gasoline Alley from the Seventies, Tonight I'm Yours from the Eighties and Downtown Train and MTV Unplugged from the Nineties. He is a soccer fanatic, especially when Scotland are playing, and he has a penchant for identikit blondes. Previous partners have included Britt Ekland, Alana Hamilton and Rachel Hunter, from whom he recently divorced. For further information contact Atlantic Records on: 20 7 467 2585 SHOTLIST: 1.
