Singer David Cassidy was a megastar when he visited Glasgow in 1974.
Pursued by fans, he seems not to mind giving autographs on the move - though his colleague seems less amused by the idea.
It was a time when fans regularly screamed their adoration for chart toppers such as Cassidy and home-grown talent such as the Bay City Rollers - though the Apollo was a more popular venue for visiting heroes than the Shawfield Stadium, where Cassidy performed.
After a chart career spanning 18 gold and platinum records - and 25million sales - with hits such as Daydreamer, he reinvented himself as a stage star on Broadway and in the West End.
Cassidy has since returned to his pop star roots though, and toured in America last year.
