I first photographed Bob Dylan in June 1978, when I toured with him. The last time was just before Covid, 2019 in London. He looked very happy here. I am writing about how I became his photographer in 1978. I will post more when I have release date! #BobDylan #Music #Poet #Genius #ACompleteUnknown

A film you have to see! ‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ is best music documentaries. I’ve seen it 3 times. I had a little involvement in it happening, & I am thrilled that I am mentioned on the credits at the end. Bernard McMahon, Allison McGourty & Dan Gitlin have produced a masterpiece! #LedZeppelin

David Johansen, New York Dolls passed away, 28th Feb. We spent time in Dallas in 2004 @Crossroads Festival with David & Hubert Sumlin. Stage 4 cancer, a brain tumour & broken back in two places. Tommy Cooper would say, don't go to those places. RIP, David, & condolences to his family. #davidjohansen

I woke up today, it hit me again! My wonderful friend, absolute legend, Sam Moore has left us! Sam & Dave were a bit before my time. But, in the 1990s, Sam, his wife Joyce, their daughter Michelle, & The Clifford’s became family. This is a big loss to us all. Here is Sam & I in New York RIPSammoore

Well, that's a wrap!

Last night, the end of the Squeeze tour that was 7 weeks UK & 7 weeks USA. It’s a long time to be on the road. I love their music, and I love them all, too. Here is the last live shot of the night and tour onstage at London's iconic Roundhouse!

Whilst here on this new platform, I want to introduce you to Freddie Montana. He is one of my closest friends and never known a cat that is more responsive, so much like a dog. He actually does follow commands & does as he is asked. He is a one off! #Cat #Animal #Pussy #familypet #Pet #photo #feline
