That pic of Linda was a part of the Get Closer photo shoot. Obviously they went in a different direction with the red polka dot dress.....

Seems many posts have disappeared from the discussion section in the past few weeks. It isn't on a previous page?

Seems many posts have disappeared from the discussion section in the past few weeks. It isn't on a previous page? RF and everybody else, it's this outfit called "VIGLINK". If you hold your cursor over a link like the the one I posted the other day you'll see VIGLINK's web address before the actual weblink at the bottom corner. Those guys are monitoring the posts for whatever reason. If you know how to cut and paste the exact link into a private window, you might get it to work? Also see my previous post.

Not just links but actual posts which I doubt they would be bothered with.

Using Ellery Queen (pun intended lol) skills, I said to myself she had tight perm in mid '78 when Living came out. Was figuring that her perm was growing out in this pic. The Newsweek cover photo with Jerry in 1979 shows Linda with short straight hair but not as short as what was to come for Mad Love. So I figured that her hair was getting too long to have straight hair (with just some curls at end) take over so she had her hair cut short to cut out perm. Then she had her hair almost buzzed for Mad Love. It grew out by "Get Closer" but unless she curled her hair for pic or got some other long hair perm it doesn't seem to make sense chronologically. Though looking at her famous "What's New" photo she seemed to have wavy hair (maybe teased a little?). She might look a couple years older so maybe 1982 right (though it says created June 15 and also that the session was Oct 1982). Which one? eddiejinnj PS: The outfit may be more 1982 pre-What's New Hey Eddie, now that we're on the subject of the chronology of Linda's hair late 70s/early 80s, there is something I always thought was a bit off. Remember Linda and Phoebe's performance on SNL which was dated 1979? Linda's hair was completely straight and pulled back! Her 1978 tight perm couldn't have grown out that quickly and the Newsweek cover with her and Jerry on the Pan Am plane en route to Africa circa 1979 was too short to be pulled back like it was on SNL. Hmmmmm. I guess I have too much time on my hands this morning to be concerned about such things, but what the hell. Give me something, dude! haha

It is weird, I just deleted that post. It cool you commented on it as I like to figure out dates of Linda's photos by clues such as hair length etc. Maybe it was late '79 rt before the buzz cut. The Jerry Brown trip was in the summer so maybe it just grows fast? Am trying, lol!!!!! eddiejinnj

Looks like Linda was in Africa from April 6 through April 15, 1979. The best picture of Linda's hair length is the picture of her with the camel calf. This would be about 6 weeks before the SNL show on May 19 withe Phoebe Snow. Her April hair length, hair being straight and bobby pins seem to fit. The Pan Am picture goes it looks like it might be a paste. I've seen the same picture (paste up) with 2 different seat fabric also of them seated at a bar.

I went to one of the Radio City Get Closer shows. Great seats for that one. I have told this but in the pit I could see the set list written and one of the songs said "the Moon is a Bitch" (instead of Harsh Mistress). eddiejinnj

First attempt at posting pics here...these are from Radio City Music Hall - the Get Closer tour. She did a week's worth of shows there and I was lucky enough to see 4 of them. She wore this cute cheerleader outfit. I took some photos and finally got around to scanning them to post. Quality is not the best, but remember these are 37 year old photos just scanned, and I am not a photographer. Hope you like them Oh wow those are great... If Olivia had not taken the part, Linda could have easily played Sandy in Grease.

When was that photo taken? Somebody on Instagram wrote Get Closer... The hair and make up does.. but that blouse looks like the one Linda wore with cut off jeans and knee high socks with her hair done up gibson girl style... during Retrospective Album era...

Wish the pic panned out a little more. When they said Get Closer I was thinking that the color was off since the dress is red? Is this the case or not the dress at all? I think Dianna on to something!!!!! eddiejinnj

Rob..Good Catch... but I'm not really sure... the polka dots in the colored photo look more crisp and or white than the b/w photo.. which is hard to tell, but to me lol the polka dots look more gray.. it could be the photo.. and during Get Closer it seemed she'd wear scarlet red lipstick as opposed to the more glossy lipstick.... Who knows.

Who knows. They tried different looks and shoots for that album. The hair is essentially the same from tame to wild or blown out a bit.

Maybe she wore that same blouse during The Get Closer Shoot (she used a lot of the same clothing during that time)... Anyway To me it looks like the same top..

If you click on the Instagram subscriber, openheartspace who is Genny Schorr.. She styled Linda during the 80's.. she has a lot of information and history on Linda's clothing during that time.. It would have been great to style Linda !! Dream Job!!
