Información sobre este eBook
“Her compassionate, penetrating images enable us to experience again the exhilaration we felt when we encountered these artists for the first time.” —Oprah.com
The story of rock lives in Lynn Goldsmith’s photographs. After coming of age in the Midwest in the tumultuous 1960s, she crashed the music scene in New York and emerged as one of its leading image-makers. She chronicled Bruce Springsteen’s passage to glory, the Rolling Stones’ legendary stadium tours, Michael Jackson’s staggering ascent, U2’s arrival in New York, and the brooding force of Bob Marley. Culture heroes like Bob Dylan and Patti Smith became frequent subjects for her lens. The range of her work is staggering.
In Rock and Roll Stories, she shares the best of this work. Her commentary takes the reader into the studio, the tour bus, the concert hall, and the streets where the pictures were made, offering revealing perspectives on her subjects and herself. A greatly expanded and newly designed edition of her very successful book PhotoDiary (1995), this volume captures the story of a generation’s loyalty to rock and roll.
“Goldsmith’s reputation as someone who could get even the most notoriously fickle celebrities to open up for her camera brought all manner of artists into her studio. The music she loved, the images she made, and the lovers she took were often interwoven, all part of the story she tells in Rock and Roll Stories.” —PopPhoto
