a twist of the wrist

“One evening the band decided to dress up in drag and take some snapshots for their next album cover. Lori [Maddox], Chrissie Wood, and Miss Lucy from the GTOs plastered makeup all over Robert, Bonzo, and John, while Jimmy was given a striking bouffant coiffure. George Harrison was waiting in a suite downstairs to go to dinner with Led Zeppelin, and so the boys decided to give George a surprise. "But what they didn't know," Lori remembers, "was that Stevie Wonder had come along with George Harrison and was down there too. All the guys came traipsing into the suite in makeup and dresses and there's Stevie Wonder sitting there! Can you imagine? Can you just imagine? There's Led Zeppelin all in drag and Stevie Wonder thinks the guys are doing it as a joke on him because he was blind. They almost died from embarrassment."
