PHOTOGRAPHER JIM MARSHALL: 1936 - 2010


MUSIC INDUSTRY PHOTOGRAPHER

JIM MARSHALL

1936 - 2010



From the music news page of the NPR web site:

"I'm not sure that the art world appreciates music photography adequately, but they will become more and more appreciative," he says. "And as we get further and further away from the remarkable maelstrom of music that Jim Marshall walked through and photographed in the '60s and '70s, we will see how truly unique and singular those people and events were, and his viewpoints on it will be the way we see it."


Some of his iconic photos can be found below.
