Steve Schapiro’s stunning archive of early-1960s jazz musicians Written by national jazz journalist Richard Scheinin Including the likes of Count Basie, Dorothy Ashby, Bill Evans and many more “… Every single image in this 315-page hardcover, coffee-table book offers a fresh perspective of artists we thought we knew well from photos on album covers.”— Jazzwax Substack “History hiding in plain sight for 60 years.” — WBGO One of the leading social documentary photographers of the 1960s, Steve Schapiro’s images stand among the most important of the 20th century, covering Muhammad Ali, Martin Luther King, Jr., James Baldwin and many others. These largely unknown jazz photos – shot just before his career breakthrough – showcase his early mastery and his empathy for his subjects, makingJazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard, and Riverside Sessions an essential archive. In the early ’60s, when Schapiro arrived on the scene, New York jazz was enjoying a golden age. A young freelance photographer who had grown up in the Bronx and somehow snagged a gig with Riverside Records, he began voraciously documenting shows, players, venues, recording sessions and gatherings both in his native New York and later in Chicago. Whether it’s Sonny Rollins lifting weights backstage, or Bobby Timmons lost in an instant of discovery at the piano, Schapiro was on their wavelength. Written by US jazz journalist Richard Scheinin Jazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard, and Riverside Sessions features dozens of never-before-seen photos of jazz legends like Cannonball Adderley, Melba Liston, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Rollins, Count Basie and more. Steve Schapiro (1934–2022) was an American photographer known for his photojournalism work and for capturing key moments of the Civil Rights Movement, such as the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, the push for voter registration, and the third Selma to Montgomery march. He is also famous for his portraits of celebrities and movie stills, most importantly from The Godfather (1972) and Taxi Driver (1976). Schapiro worked with many notable figures, including Andy Warhol, Muhammad Ali, David Bowie, James Baldwin, Martin Luther King Jr, Robert F. Kennedy, Barbra Streisand, Bill Evans and Samuel Beckett. Schapiro’s work is represented in many private and public collections and can be found in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, MoMA, the Art Institute of Chicago, the National Museum of African American History and Culture, the High Museum of Art, and the J. Paul Getty Museum. In 2017, Schapiro won the Lucie Award for Achievement in Photojournalism. Richard Scheinin's work has appeared in the New York Times, GQ, and other national publications. A staff writer at SFJAZZ, he was the San Jose Mercury News' classical music and jazz critic for more than a decade and has profiled scores of public figures, from Sonny Rollins to Ike Turner and the Dalai Lama. He is the author ofField of Screams: The Dark Underside of America’s National Pastime (W.W. Norton), a history of baseball.

An insider’s guide to the music that Bowie listened to and loved Jointly written by Bowie’s lifelong friend and by the journalist who interviewed Bowie on numerous occasions An essential playlist for any Bowie fan David Bowie was the original influencer. For five decades, his songs helped shape the landscape of popular music. But what did he listen to? Which artists, songs and albums did Bowie tune in to throughout his life? This book, the first of its kind, reveals more than 100 artists that made it onto Bowie’s turntable. David Bowie: Music Lover is a compelling mix of personal insight and expert commentary, jointly written by Bowie’s lifelong friend, collaborator and listening companion, Geoff MacCormack, and Jérôme Soligny, author of the seminal Rainbowman, who knew Bowie for 25 years. From Classical to Britpop, Electronica to Delta Blues, the book explores Bowie’s eclectic playlist, redolent of the decades he lived through but also of his deep interest in all genres and eras of music. It’s a story that begins with Little Richard on Bowie’s childhood Dansette record player, and ends with Kendrick Lamar, a go-to listen during the recording of Blackstar, released just two days before he died. An indispensable guide for Bowie fans and all Music Lovers. Geoff MacCormack was David Bowie’s lifelong friend. They grew up together, sharing an interest in music that continued throughout their lives. Geoff joined Bowie’s 1973 world tour as an additional back-up vocalist and percussionist, and later as a ‘Diamond Dog’ in '74 and what would be known as ‘The Young Americans Soul Tour’. He also worked with Bowie on the six albums from Aladdin Sane to Station to Station. David Bowie: Music Lover is Geoff’s second book with ACC, following on from David Bowie: Rock ’n’ Roll with Me (2023). Jérôme Soligny is a musician, writer and journalist who interviewed David Bowie on numerous occasions over a 25-year period. He is the author of Rainbowman (Monoray, 2023), widely acclaimed for its rigorous research into Bowie the musician. In 2019, Jérôme was awarded the Chevalier des Arts et Lettres by Tony Visconti.

Charting a lifelong friendship Photographic memoir of untold stories and nearly 150 candid photos, many shown for the first time Afterword by David Bowie “And now David Bowie: Rock ‘n’ Roll With Me is out in the world — perhaps the closest you’ll get to being on tour with Bowie in that era without a time machine and a backstage pass.” — InsideHook “His photographic memoir reveals untold stories and nearly 150 candid photos.” — The Guardian “Intimate and full of references so specific you can almost smell the pub carpets and stage make-up” — HuckMag “Go on tour with David Bowie in an all-new photographic memoir” — Yahoo! Entertainment David Bowie: Rock ‘n’ Roll with Me is Geoff MacCormack’s remarkable photographic memoir, charting his lifelong friendship with David Bowie. Images bring MacCormack’s stories to life, showing the places he and Bowie inhabited, the people they met and the adventures they shared. Beginning at Burnt Ash Primary school in the mid-1950s, the years go by in a whirlwind of discovering and making music. The book contains nearly 150 photos taken by MacCormack throughout the years, some never seen before: from touring the Ziggy Stardust and Aladdin Sane shows and sailing to New York on a world tour, to Bowie’s first major film The Man Who Fell to Earth and the recording of Station to Station and his Thin White Duke persona. David Bowie: Rock ‘n’ Roll with Me is an incredible story, told with wit and candour. A must for all Bowie fans, it sheds a rare insight into a friendship where two men shared their love for music from the moment they met to their final goodbyes. Geoff MacCormack, David Bowie’s lifelong friend, joined Bowie’s 1973 world tour as an additional back-up vocalist and percussionist, and later as a ‘Diamond Dog’ in '74 and what would be known as ‘The Young Americans Soul Tour’. He also worked on the six albums from Aladdin Sane to Station to Station. After three years of touring, recording and travelling with Bowie, MacCormack started an award winning (Gold Clio, Ivor Novello) music production partnership with Simon Goldenberg who he met, coincidentally, in The Three Tuns pub, home of Bowie’s earlier ‘Arts Lab’. For over 20 years, they wrote music for high-end advertising, films and TV. Geoff now manages the use and sale of his photographs of David Bowie around the world and has exhibited in St Petersburg, the USA and the UK, including the hugely successful ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll with Me’ exhibition at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery from September 2020 through to May 2022.

Official photographer to David Bowie, Denis O'Regan presents his superb collection of photographs of the music legend, from the 1970s through to the 1990s Denis O'Regan has photographed Bowie more than any other photographer Stunning photographs taken across two decades at over 200 concerts worldwide O'Regan captures David behind-the-scenes as well as David Bowie the showman O'Regan provides a first-person account to accompany each chapter of his photographic journey “… It’s as elegant and considered as Bowie himself, a mixture of gallery-level quality and personal scrapbook charm.” — Louder Than War “…one of the most stunning and possibly heaviest books in the Bowie canon.” — God Is In The TV “His images are not just records, they are living archives, fragments of history with a capital H…He doesn’t just show; he frames, builds, lights without trickery, but with a sense of rhythm that feels almost musical.” — Eye of Photography “The result is a rare, career-spanning portrait of the chameleonic rock star, featuring never-before-seen images and candid recollections from a man who knew Bowie as both icon and friend. It’s also a record of proximity: of what it means to move through life alongside an artist who refused to repeat himself.” — Interview magazine “A book of images by David Bowie’s official tour photographer is every bit as mesmerising as you’d imagine.” —Loupe Magazine Official photographer to music legend David Bowie, Denis O’Regan presents a personal edit from his unrivalled collection of photographs. Accompanying Bowie on two world tours and enjoying a decades-long relationship with the star, no one photographed Bowie more than Denis O’Regan. As Bowie himself once remarked, ‘Denis, Rock ‘n’ Roll is in your blood’. From the door of Olympic Studios, where Bowie recorded Diamond Dogs in 1974, to live stadium shows in the 1990s, Denis’s full archive is at last opened and many unseen images revealed for the first time. David Bowie by Denis O’Regan tells Bowie’s musical story in pictures, with O’Regan’s own words relaying his experience of documenting that incredible journey. Author of the hugely successful Ricochet: David Bowie 1983 (Particular Books, 2018), O’Regan has toured with the biggest stars from The Rolling Stones and Queen to Pink Floyd and Duran Duran, to name a few. But it is his photographs of David Bowie, taken over two decades at over 200 concerts worldwide, that he is best known for. David Bowie the showman and David behind-the scenes, O’Regan has captured it all in this showcase of one of the world’s most talented performers. Denis O’Regan documented the punk explosion of the mid 1970s, toured Europe with the Rolling Stones on their only tour of the eighties and covered David Bowie’s entire Serious Moonlight world tour. In the nineties, Denis shot Pink Floyd’s final tour, and into the 21st century was commissioned as the official photographer to the Coachella, Download and Glastonbury festivals. He has been published and exhibited globally and produces limited edition books and fine art prints, which are available at his London gallery. His Ricochet: David Bowie boxset is featured in the Victoria & Albert’s permanent collection. Denis’s other books include Ricochet: David Bowie 1983 (Particular Books, 2018) and Duran Duran: Careless Memories (ACC Art Books, 2022). Published 22nd Jul 2025

And it’s also the perfect excuse to revisit the Blondie phenomenon, the art of photographing rock stars, and why, perhaps, bands aren’t “made” like they used to be.” — GQ Mexico “Goddard’s lens doesn’t merely document Blondie’s rise; it captures a turning point in music and visual culture.” — Louder Than War “…a handsome book.” — BBC’s Robert Elms Show “… More than nostalgia, the book reflects Goddard’s ability to balance artistry and access—creating images that feel as intimate as they are electric.” — The Candid Frame Podcast Blondie in Camera 1978 is richly illustrated with photographer Martyn Goddard’s most famous images of Blondie. Taken during their breakthrough year, these pictures have graced magazines, newspapers, promotional campaigns, posters and even the ‘Picture This’ single cover and the Best of Blondie album cover. Blondie’s rise to the mainstream surface punctuated the late ’70s with a raft of unforgettable New Wave hits. The genre-mashing classic ‘Heart of Glass’ along with the likes of ‘Hanging on a Telephone’ and ‘Picture This’ were as zesty and fresh-faced as the young band members, who soon found superstardom as their singles landed and the strength of their attitude began to resonate. When Goddard travelled to New York in ’78 with an assignment to photograph lead-singer Debbie Harry, he couldn’t have imagined that Blondie’s songs and his images would soon become permanent fixtures on the cultural landscape. This is the ultimate treasure trove for fans of one of the world’s biggest bands. Martyn Goddard studied photography at Harrow College of Art. After graduating in 1974, he assisted leading Rock photographer Gered Mankowitz before launching his own freelance career with several assignments photographing Queen. He became part of the New Wave music scene of the seventies, working with acts such as Blondie, The Jam, Sham 69 and The Cure to name a few. He has contributed or staged several photography exhibitions, including Blondie in Camera 1978 and The Jam: About the Young Idea 2015. In the late 1970’s, he was invited to contribute to the Telegraph Sunday Magazine, where his first major assignment was a cover and feature shoots of Debbie Harry in New York. He went on to shoot some of the great personalities of the music and arts world. In recent years, he has moved to a digital platform, becoming an active photo-blogger and content provider, as well as producing travel features and images for Media groups in UK, Europe and USA, in addition to cataloguing and preserving his extensive archive of rock bands and musicians.

Over 200 colour and 75 black-and-white images of The Cure over the decades Accompanying captions written by frontman Robert Smith and photographer Paul Cox Foreword by Robert Smith Stunning images selected from Cox's personal archives and overseen by Robert Smith Included in Rough Trade's Books of the Year 2024 … “What sets Stills apart from your standard rock photo book is the captions, written by Robert Smith himself.” — WhyNow The Cure “Stills” follows the changing faces of one of the leading British rock bands during the post-punk and new-wave movements of the late ’70s and ’80s. As the band has continued over a period of nearly 50 years, front man and only constant member Robert Smith has maintained the band’s popularity throughout the changing musical eras, while staying true to their individualistic style and quirkiness. Instrumental in the creation of the varying incarnations of The Cure is photographer Paul Cox, who first encountered the group onTop of the Pops in 1980. Having established a creative, productive and trusting relationship with the band, Cox’s resulting work is The Cure in all their glory. Including over 200 colour and 75 black-and-white images, with accompanying captions selected and written by Cox and Smith, this book is a celebration of a seminal band through the lens of a skilled photographer. Paul’s career took off in the late 1970’s initially with a job with London Features International photographing bands at concerts and various locations. One of these was the BBC studios for Top of the Pops, where Paul first encountered The Cure in 1980.

Normski’s photographs capture the emerging hip hop scene of the 1980s… from the inside Public Enemy, N.W.A., Cypress Hill, De La Soul, Goldie, Ice-T, Run DMC and Wu-Tang Clan are all included Definitive, celebratory, a stunning visual record “With his legendary swag, Norman Anderson, aka Normski, hip-hop ambassador in the United Kingdom since its emergence in the 1980s, is the great archivist of these glory days he captured London to Detroit.” — Rolling Stone France “The difference between Normski’s photograph of me and any other is that it captures my soul.” — Goldie “He was a larger-than-life character, full of energy and totally motivating. He really was the hip hop photographer of the day in the UK.” — Stereo MC’s “This book contains a striking catalogue of images, many of which have been exhibited by establishments such as Tate Britain, the V&A, Somerset House and the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture.” — Marcus Barnes “On the heels of Hip-Hop’s 50th anniversary, Man with the Golden Shutter is a celebratory record of hip-hop as much as it is a definitive collection of Normski’s incredible photographs.” — GQ Middle East “What elevates the book is Normski’s voice threading through it all. The stories that accompany the photographs are alive with hustle and charm as he talks his way backstage, makes lighting rigs out of whatever was lying around and persuades a tired MC to pose just one more time.” — Musee Magazine Normski was a vital witness to the period known as the Golden Age of Rap, when big US artists like Run DMC, LL Cool J and Public Enemy started to play in the UK. At the same time, a British music scene born of Black music and myriad multicultural influence was developing, giving birth to Jungle, Garage and Techno. The author, who describes himself as having been a “young Black British homeboy photographer”, was in the right place at the right time to document the emergent music, community and social movements of hip hop and rap in the UK. Normski: Man with the Golden Shutter presents Normski’s personal journey through that world from the mid-1980s to early 1990s. The book includes Normski’s often previously unseen photographs of Public Enemy, N.W.A., Cypress Hill, De La Soul, Goldie, Ice-T, Run DMC, Wu-Tang Clan and many others, alongside the photographer’s stories and anecdotes from the centre of what would become a hugely influential cultural movement.

A chronicle of rock 'n' roll history as seen through the lens of master photographer Terry O'Neill “Terry was everywhere in the ’60s – he knew everything and everyone that was happening” – Keith Richards Terry O’Neill (1938-2019) was one of the world’s most celebrated and collected photographers. No one captured the front line of fame so broadly – and for so long. Terry O’Neill’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Album contains some of the most famous and powerful music photographs of all time. At the same time, the book includes many intimate personal photos taken ‘behind the scenes’ and at private functions. Terry O’Neill photographed the giants of the music world – both on and off-stage. For more than fifty years he captured those on the front line of fame in public and in private. David Bowie, Elton John, Led Zeppelin, Amy Winehouse, Dean Martin, The Who, Janis Joplin, AC/DC, Eric Clapton, Sammy Davis Jnr., The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Chuck Berry and The Beatles – to name only a few. O’Neill spent more than 30 years photographing Frank Sinatra as his personal photographer, with unprecedented access to the star. He took some of the earliest known photographs of The Beatles, and then forged a lifetime relationship with members of the band that allowed him to photograph their weddings and other private moments. It is this contrast between public and private that makesTerry O’Neill’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Album such a powerful document. Without a doubt, Terry O’Neill’s work comprises a vital chronicle of rock ‘n’ roll history. To any fan of music or photography, this book will be a must-buy. “Trusted by the stars to make them look good, O’Neill has captured the icons of music for over half a century… Terry O’Neill’s Rock ‘N’ Roll Album, collects a wealth of private moments and memories captured for eternity, with the likes of David Bowie, Bryan Ferry, Dolly Parton, Diana Ross, Bruce Springsteen, Led Zeppelin, Amy Winehouse and even Elvis Presley all the subject of O’Neill’s immaculately placed lens. A life in pictures, a legacy in print. Pay heed to history!” – Simon Harper, Clash Magazine

Duran Duran’s rise to fame, captured by the photographer who knows them best Hundreds of exclusive photographs, many unseen, plus interviews and quotes The most comprehensive document of Duran Duran’s Sing Blue Silver tour, their most successful ever Contains contributions from all members of Duran Duran “…unparalleled behind-the-scenes glimpse into life on the road with Duran Duran.” — Classic Pop “Denis got to see a different side of the machine – he saw the cogs going around, and there were times when that wasn’t popular with everybody … Once we saw the photographs, however, we were able to appreciate the potency of it.” Simon Le Bon With chart hits charts like ‘Girls on Film’, ‘Hungry like a Wolf’, ‘Rio’ and ‘The Reflex’ and pioneering music videos, Duran Duran cemented their place as indisputable icons of the ’80s New Romantic music scene. Having sold over 100 million records, they continue to be one of the UK’s most popular bands. Eternally evolving, always innovating, their fanbase spans the globe. Containing hundreds of exquisitely restored photographs taken mostly during the North American and Japanese legs of the band’s record-breaking 1984 Sing Blue Silver tour, Careless Memories provides an unparalleled visual history of Duran Duran’s ascent to the top, with commentary from the band members themselves. Denis O’Regan joined the band in France, where they were filming their New Moon On Monday video, and stayed with them until the end of the tour. His unprecedented access to the band gives the Careless Memories book an insight into the lives of Simon, Nick, John, Roger and Andy as they won hearts around the world. It documents the excitement of the shows and the hysteria and mayhem that surrounded them. For Duran Duran fans, Careless Memories is a 224 page backstage pass that captures the band at the peak of their powers and their fame. Denis O’Regan has worked with Duran Duran since 1980 and covered every day of the hugely successful 1984 tour that became known as Sing Blue Silver. Prior to that, Denis documented the Punk explosion of the mid Seventies, toured Europe with the Rolling Stones on their only tour of the Eighties, and covered David Bowie’s entire Serious Moonlight world tour. In the Nineties, Denis covered Pink Floyd’s final tour, and into the 21st century was commissioned as the official photographer to Coachella, Download and Glastonbury festivals. He has been published and exhibited globally and produces limited edition books and fine art prints, which are available at his London gallery. He is currently Artist In Residence to the Royal Albert Hall and his Ricochet: David Bowie box-set is featured in the Victoria & Albert’s permanent collection. Published 5th Sep 2022

86 stunning behind-the-scenes photographs of the largest music and performing arts festival in the world Photographs taken over a period of 30 years, capturing the way the festival has evolved Revealing the grit and grime of the revellers behind the glitz and glamour of the headliners Documentary-style photographs interwoven with stunning artistic compositions Attention to detail on the book design is exquisite: with sunset orange endpapers and illuminous yellow internal book spine mimicking the festival wristband “Capturing the spirit of every Glastonbury since 1992, this coffee table book from award-winning photographer Liam Bailey brings together three decades of revelry and wonder among festivalgoers on Somerset’s most famous dairy farm.” — Redonline.co.uk “…Iconic Photos That Capture the Messy Essence of Glastonbury.” — VICE “The book’s images capture the rugged anarchy that spreads through Somerset each year around the solstice.” — MSN “There are many books about the music scene but few that show punters in all their beautiful variety. Liam Bailey’s long-term documentation has really paid off – this book about the craziness of Glastonbury Festival is terrific.” – Martin Parr Glastonbury is the striking distillation of over 30 years’ unprecedented photographic access to the world’s largest green-field music and performing arts festival. In over 120 memorable images, Liam Bailey invites us to share his experiences of being among its diverse tribes. Although Glastonbury has evolved into a sprawling fixture of the British summer calendar, this famously vibrant event is still powered by the belief in alternative communal culture. It is this special energy that has kept Bailey returning every year since 1992. Above all, this ‘access all areas’ visual diary makes a case for the positive human potential of over 200,000 people being able to get together in the open air – to enjoy music, performance and each other. Bailey’s work has been exhibited in the UK and abroad, and appeared in magazines and newspapers including The Independent, The Guardian and Condé Nast Traveller. Liam Bailey is a photographer, working out of Norfolk, England. After a spell working as a chemistry teacher, followed by a brief stint at the BBC, Liam moved into photography full time.

The first, Forever England (Dewi Lewis Publishing, 2006) was published following a social documentary examining the inanimate inhabitants of the UK's first model village. He presently works for Creative Arts EAST, he previously co-founded the photography platform, Photocrowd.com. In 2006, he was awarded an MA in Photography by the London College of Communication and in 2022 graduated with an MA in Culture and Arts' Photography from Novia University of Applied Sciences in Finland. Represented by Institute Artists up until 2020, Liam now represents himself. He is a member of the Association of Photographers. Published 14th Jun 2024

Complete survey of the collaboration between Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke for the band, Radiohead Many previously unpublished works and notebooks included Exclusive interview with Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood Includes essay by the novelist Ben Myers A major retrospective is held at the Ashmolean Museum from August 2025 to January 2026 This major retrospective catalogue accompanies the first institutional exhibition focusing on the visual works of art by Stanley Donwood and Thom Yorke. The majority of the paintings, drawings and digital works were specifically made for Yorke’s internationally celebrated band Radiohead, formed in Oxford in 1985. The book is beautifully designed in the same size as a record cover and features iconic artworks from the 1980s until today, relating to Radiohead albums, their covers and promotional band images, as well as sketchbooks and rare materials from their archives that have never before been published. It offers fresh views on the art of album covers, exploring the complex relationship between visual art and music. Radiohead was formed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, in 1985. The collaboration with the artist Stanley Donwood began in 1994 when the band was developing their second album, The Bends, which was released on 13th March, 1995. 2025 is therefore the 40-year anniversary of the band and the 30-year anniversary of the release of The Bends. The catalogue’s focus is upon the art produced by both Stanley Donwood and the band’s lead vocalist, Thom Yorke presented chronologically. Radiohead’s popularity has never waned and they have a strong core following and new fans (many of who are the children of ‘original’ fans). The high-quality reproductions are complemented by exclusive interviews with the artists, and essays by Alex Farquharson, Nico Kos Earle, Benjamin Myers, James Putnam and Jennifer Ramkalawon. A major retrospective is held at the Ashmolean Museum from August 2025 to January 2026.
