i like the looks of that portable he's got there... we all know steve mcqueen was hip but i think kind of blue was the best-selling jazz record of all time at the time the pic was taken.
I once saw a similar picture of O.J. Simpson from 1967, where he's got a portable rig similar to what McQueen's got...he's at home with his first-wife-to-be (not Nicole) and there's about three or four albums casually laying on the floor...haven't seen the pic in awhile, but from memory one of those elpees was The Fabulous Impressions.
"Steve is a jazz lover ? he takes his portable stereo with him wherever he goes," Dominis wrote in his notes. Pictured: At the Palm Springs bungalow, McQueen puts on a record, with LPs by Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, and Frank Sinatra and Count Basie scattered at his feet.[/b]
