Haven't seen that picture before. It's about the most Barrett-y I've ever seen Richey.

I had never seen that pic before either. Yeah, he really does have a Syd look going on there.

i saw this at work today and was hoping someone would mention it.
almost all the pics are ones i've never seen before including pics of them rehearsing in '91, a cool pic of all their guitars backstage and others that look like they must've come from someone very close to the band and not from press.

Richard is a novel about Richey. It is semi-fictional.

the ben meyers 'novel' based on the life of richey.
he basically goes through key events in his life guessing what he would've been thinking at the time in a stream of conciousness dialogue.
its badly written, disrespectful and generally a bit childish

Wow, unseen pics is great news! I'll definitely be getting hold of this then (I would anyhow, I think, as I've somehow ended up trying to nab all the Manics-related books...), even if for that alone.

Might order one just for the sake of the new pictures then. It's odds on it won't cover much more than what's already been said in Everything.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Thanks for the heads up.

i've not read any of the text at all but was genuinely suprised when i saw the pics.
some are odd, like different angles from photo shoots we've seen (pic of nicky on the bed, richey on the windowledge from motorcycle - although it credits the pic as richey & 'unknown extra'!!) different pics from the you love us shoot with the drinks and balloons and outside in france where richey's got his big cardie on.
aside from that its all stuff i've never seen before. even tha back cover is a richey pic i dont know. i'll skim it tomorrow and report back.

i got hold of 'richard' through work, we were sent 2 copies for staff to read and give feedback to suppliers on commercial opportunity etc.
me and my wife read it, both hated it
