Now, for the first time, Bailey presents his all time favorite rock and roll images, a stunning gallery of musical heroes spanning four decades. The sixty high-impact images Bailey has selected bring to life the evolution of rock, starting with his remarkable early pictures of the Beatles and the Who and concluding with his takes on U2, Oasis, and other contemporary hit makers. Along the way, Bailey captures an eclectic array of pop icons as we’ve never seen them before including Bob Dylan, Tina Turner, Patti Smith, John Lydon, Sting, Seal, and UB40 and jazzes things up with portraits of Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, Fred Astaire and other older stars. And throughout the book, in twenty six astounding photographs, Bailey chronicles a band he’s been friends with for more than thirty years, the Rolling Stones. For rock fans everywhere.
