Afghan girl is a beautiful photo and it says so much.

Amazing story too how they followed it up and managed to find the woman in question years later.

Actually 69.

Then was reincarnated again and kept going until recently as the Palace which was both a live venue and night club.

 

 

The Palaise Theatre which was next door.

Seen quite a few excellent concerts here.
