California Dreaming Los Angeles Party
Many of Henry's dearest friends, as well as several of the contributors to the book - Graham Nash, Michelle Phillips, Ned Doheny, Micky Dolenz, Paul Zollo and Renais Jeanne-Hill - turned up to honour not only Henry's friendship but also his significant contribution to the music history of southern California.
Also putting in an appearance were Brian Wilson, Joe Walsh, Ringo Starr with his wife Barbara Bach and Olivia Harrison. Ringo and Olivia were delighted when Henry presented them with complimentary copies of his book.
Several copies of the book were sold which Henry took time to personalise in his impressively-neat hand-writing. Rona Elliot said a few words to honour Henry, describing the evening as a "Henry Love-fest", which spurred Graham Nash, Micky Dolenz and Michelle Phillips to stand up and make impromptu speeches of their own about the much-loved photographer.
