R.I.P. Jim Marshall, Long Lives Rock and Roll

Grace Slick, Janis Joplin, 1967


Another great artist passes, this time renown chronicler of rock and roll in the 1960's and 1970's, photographer Jim Marshall. He died in his sleep, one couldn't ask for a better way to go....

Great photographs of all the greats, some shots so famous they are practically art icons. Like the one of Jimi Hendrix here. Or Bobby Dylan, (above) kicking the tire, 1963.

“I have no kids,” Marshall said. “My photographs are my children.”

 Thanks, Jim, for leaving so much behind for us all.

Woodstock, 1969

Johnny Cash, San Quentin, 1969
