That particular picture doesn't ring any bells. But he must be around 16 or 17 in that one. Interesting to see him with a smile on his face.
In all of the pics I've seen of him when he was in Flip City (when he was 20 or so) he has quite a bit of hair.

It's not from Complicated Shadows , it's from Goerge Gimarc's Punk Diary 1970 - 1979 , accompanying an entry about the formation of Rusty with Allan Mayes in Liverpool.

I'd guess the one in the rear, center, with the girl to his left...

Remember the days when kids wore ties and dresses to a birthday party?
I don't...but it looks like Elvis might.

Norm on F/book says
"Blackmail Corner" photo caption says: "Elvis, by the way, is the beady-eyed brat south-west of the balloons in the centre of the shot."

If that's chubby faced, someone must have a real problem regarding eating disorders - EC looks like a typical young boy showing off a bit for the camera at a party, rather sweet really !
