From early sixties pop fan, avid mod to serious music fan of the 1970s and music promoter, he also travelled far and wide whilst nurturing his love of world culture, music and people: in later years he also worked for the BBC World Service. Kristan captured thousands of music-related photographs during his lifetime and it is those that he shot during the punk, new wave and immediate post-punk era that followed that are included within this book. The images date back to his work for Record Mirror and beyond, capturing many artists at their best – right there on stage, where they were at their most relevant, revealing and exciting. Included are rare and previously unseen images of [among others] The Clash, The Jam, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Buzzcocks, Blondie, The Lurkers, The Stranglers, Chrissie Hynde, Pere Ubu and The Specials.NON-UK POSTING: PLEASE NOTE, WE ARE NOT AT ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FURTHER FEES INCURED BY CUSTOMS.
