Déc 2018

Quite busy those days.

Please note that I have started uploading another model of Kinfauns, this time with textures.

Heres a link if you want to see for yourself

On a side note, in my everyday search, I found a new pic of Kinfauns. New ? Yes or no, it's available but in a much cropped version, here's a better one

Another good news came from Sara Schmidt (aka Starshyne) from Meey The Beatles For Real blog (http://meetthebeatlesforreal.blogspot.com/) who kindly provide me a sketch of the house before the Music Room was built. Thanks Sara !

Summer 2018

Here are some news :

1- I finally got hold of a Kinfauns video. Very brief one but you can view it here

2- I finaly uploaded my own modelling of the bungalow, it's the untextured version.
Sketchfab model - click here

3-I found two more pictures of Kinfauns. I believe they were taken by Sylvan Mason Whittingham and shot in the early 70's, before the wall was white washed. The first one is available with a quick search but I believe in a cropped version or maybe it's an alternate shot.

March 2018 photos

March 2018


Good news : I found some additionnal photos of Kinfauns

1 A new picture of the music room, shot by Henry Grossman at George Harrison 24th birthday party. Obviously taken from "Place I remember - My times with the Beatles". I really wish I had a larger resolution (or even better, the Grossman's book), but sadly, I don't.
Obviously, it's the Byrd's David Crobsy, on the far right.

2- New pictures for the John Haynes April 1969 session, provided by the Cosmic Empire blog. Definitely worth checking out as they show an undocumented wall (the one with the round windows of the music room, and an access to the kitchen).

Here are some below, but I suggest you check Lindsey's wonderful site by yourself.

A sad news came earlier from Elena the Beatles photoblog, that used without permission my comments from George Harrison 1967 birthday. On the light side, this video shows some upgrades of a few shots. I have then enhanced some photos posted earlier.

Not much to tell actually this month, health issues among others disturb me from going any further.

I'll use this page as a reminder of things I have found.

Interview of Paul Krause who went to Kinfauns, talking about his meeting with George Harrison in the music room :
