In May of 2002, John Zambetti and his son Johnny did a recording session at Abbey Road Studios in London in the legendary studio #2. They had the original tape machine and mics brought in that the Beatles had used. Photographer Gered Mankowitz joined them there to document the session.

The Malibooz 40th Anniversary Reunion show - August 11, 2004 at Loyola High School in New York City. This was where John, Walter, and the original Malibooz line-up (John Zambetti (guitar), Walter Egan (guitar), Chris Murray (vocals), Ace Lopez (bass), and Tommy Scarp (drums)) went to school and where the band was founded. The luncheonette photos were taken at Pete's Luncheonette on 83rd St and Lexington Avenue in New York City at "their" booth - the booth the band always sat in after school. The final photograph is of the boys in the Sirius Satellite Radio studios.
