DESCRIPTION:
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. 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.. Culture heroes like Bob Dylan and Patti Smith became frequent subjects for her lens. The story of rock lives in Lynn Goldsmith’s photographs. The range of her work is staggering.In Rock and Roll Stories, she shares the best of this work. 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

"I will look at this book over and over again" according to ambergrace. As a photographer I really enjoyed the photos. As a fan of rock and roll, I really enjoyed the little stories that went with the pictures. I will look at this book over and over again for years to come.. Insightful Snaps of Rock Stars! Mike O'Connor ROCK AND ROLL STORIES is a greatly expanded, redesigned edition of Lynn Goldsmith's PHOTODIARY book published in 1995. This 2013 Abrams release does full justice to its subject. A 400-page coffee-table book, it's brimming with wonderfully-done photographs of rock stars and insightful reminiscences by Goldsmith, who is one of the finest rock photogs in the business.The pix are divided into sections on 'Strange Angels,' ' 2 to 20,' 'Better than Sex,' 'On the Road,' 'Photo Nightmares,' 'Teen Idols' and so on. And what a collection of stars! Here be found Chuck Barry, Mick Jagger, Springsteen,. Fantastic Rock and Roll Book This book is an extraordinary journey into what makes a person like Lynn succeed and how she helped others to do that --- both her words and visuals make this more than just a coffee table book of rock star photos --- there are lots of rock and roll books out there but this one is different from them all because of her honesty as well as her ability to make us feel like we are there in the room with her. Bravo!
