The following photos are rare photos of Mike during his time with Kevin Ayers and the Whole World. I scanned them from "Shooting at the Moon" cd, a reissue of Kevin Ayers. His other albums are also reissued, and all recently released.

I think this is a photo from the performance in Hyde Park, London. Mike on bass guitar. Notice the cool Farfisa Compact DUO organ. ;)

The band in the studio. Notice that Mike is already experimenting with his multi-instrumental skills. ;)

But you're not saying he looks particularly great on the Incantations cover, are you? I laughed so hard when, a long time ago, Carsten Kuss (was it him?) said, "The Incantations cover shows Jean Michel Jarre. Don't you know that? Everybody knows that!"  :D

Well,I don't like Mike's look before Incantations.

After Incantations he appeared with a new look,and for me it looks better than the beard,that hairdo,it's soooo different...
Of course that I prefer him in the 90's and 2000 in terms of look.

I've been looking at the photos... Eerie, man, he looks like a cross between Syd Barrett and David Gilmour.

I loved Mike so much more when he looked like a hippy Jesus, this is my very favourite picture of Mike ever, but I really liked that one of him, the first model shot.
