The photo (front of the cd single) was made by Roel Siebrand, when I was 16 years old & thoughts it was a good idea to dye my hair dark auburn ;)
the back of the cd single 'Scram C Baby's Christmas Carol', containing the songs 'Under the Stars', 'Wherever you have roamed' and Christmastime in the Mountains'.
As a birthday present for my friend John Cees, I once wrote a song in β91 called βWherever you have roamedβ. In Nov β99, his band released the cd single βScram C Babyβs Christmas Carolβ, which also contained the song βUnder the Starsβ. The photo was made by Roel Siebrand, when I was 16 years old ;)

On our Velvet Underground cover album, I used my Starcaster on every song. Reg. Damaged Good, I played on several guitars including Peterβs SG (on B-Cuz), Love Sick & Digital Sin were definitely my Rickenbacker 360. Probably used my Starcaster on songs like Brickwall, Brother, Mouth of Age & Mrs K.
