Heaven just gained a Rock Star with the passing of Legendary Rock photographer Jim Marshall.  I loved you my friend, so I know you’re partying like a rock star tonight behind the pearly gates. It must be a Hell of a Band! Now they have a Hell of a Photographer to shoot them!

Jim Marshall with Brian Smith "Trust" at The Morrison Hotel Gall

Jim Marshall and me at his show "Trust" at The Morrison Hotel Gallery last fall.

If you’re in New York, you can check out Jim’s images paired with Timothy White’s in “Match Prints” exhibition at Staley-Wise Gallery in Soho (through April 24. ) If not check out this sample from the “Match Prints” book on GQ.com. Jimmy was a true original. Only guy I’ve ever met who could get kicked out of a restaurant that has one of his prints on the wall and then welcomed back the next night with a hug. I’m sure he’s partying with Janis Joplin now…

“Whenever anyone asks me how I got the photographs I did, why I was often the only photographer present or got such unique access I reply simply, ‘Trust’.” – Jim Marshall

Even if you don’t know legendary rock photographer Jim Marshall – you know his photographs. Jimi Hendrix setting his guitar on fire onstage at Monterey, Johnny Cash in Folsom Prison and flipping the bird onstage, Miles Davis boxing at Newman’s Gym, Jim Morrison taking a puff…

Last week while I was in New York I stopped by The Morrison Hotel Gallery and Loft to check out Marshall’s show from his his book ‘Trust’

124 Prince Street
New York, New York
October 22-November 13, 2009

If you hurry you might even be able to snag an autographed copy of ‘Trust’ Jim Marshall’s book ‘Trust’ is available on Amazon if for some strange reason you can’t make it to The Morrison Hotel Gallery before they run out.

Every year at PhotoPlus I have dinner with a bunch of photographers including Jim at Cafe Loup. I’ve always like Jim and dinner with Jim is always entertaining .Be sure to check out Jim’s website Marshall Photo.
