This classic photo of Stevie Nicks, David Lee Roth and Bonnie Raitt was taken in 1978 in front of The Body Shop Strip Club on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, CA.
Some say it was taken at the launch party for Van Halen’s first album but the occasion was actually a party thrown by Warner Brothers Records at the Strip Club to present Van Halen with their first gold record. Looks like Roth might have had a nice little cold sore (Herpes) under his bottom lip…
Nicks has a list of lovers too long to write about but I did not find any evidence of her and Diamond Dave ever dating. The Body Shop was also mentioned in the Mötley Crüe song Girls, Girls Girls is still in business to this day.
Here is a photo of The Body Shop taken at almost the exact spot of the Nicks, Roth, Raitt photo…
