Jim Marshall Pořadí knih (chronologicky)

Mit über 70 Fotografien aus dem Jim-Marshall-Archiv bietet dieser Band einen umfassenden Überblick über Johnny Cashs legendäre Gefängniskonzerte in Folsom 1968 und San Quentin 1969. Cash hatte bereits seit seinem Hit „Folsom Prison Blues“ im Jahr 1955 den Wunsch, ein Live-Album in einem Gefängnis aufzunehmen. 1968 besuchte er eines der ältesten Hochsicherheitsgefängnisse Kaliforniens, um sein Album At Folsom Prison aufzunehmen. Jim Marshall, ein langjähriger Bekannter Cashs, wurde eingeladen, das Konzert zu dokumentieren, und erhielt unbegrenzten Zugang. Unterstützt von June Carter, Carl Perkins und den Tennessee Three spielte Cash zwei Shows in Folsom, die zu einem Hit wurden und Platz eins in den Country-Charts erreichten. Dieser Erfolg revitalisierte Cashs Karriere und führte 1969 zu einem Folgealbum, At San Quentin, für das Marshall erneut eingeladen wurde. San Quentin wurde Cashs erstes Album, das die Nummer Eins in den Pop-Charts erreichte, und beide Alben zählen zu den meistverkauften Live-Alben aller Zeiten. Marshall hielt die Leidenschaft und Intimität von Cashs Auftritten fest, von der Ankunft am Gefängnis bis zu den schweißtreibenden Auftritten.

It is introduced with a foreword by renowned street artist and graphic designer Shepard Fairey and text by Peter Doggett. Folk singer Joan Baez provides the book's afterword. Marshall saw himself as an anthropologist and a journalist, visually recording the changing times and explosion of creativity and celebrity in the 1960s. He loved street photography, and in between o

Jim Marshall started photographing musicians in the 1950s, moving to New York in the 1960s,where he hung out with jazz, blues and folk artists, gaining the trust that he cites as the reason he has been able to capture such candid and revealing images over the years.

The Beatles racing across Candlestick Park at the end of their final public performance; Johnny Cash pausing to give the camera a middle finger salute before playing for inmates in San Quentin; a weary Janis Joplin backstage, keeping a whiskey bottle company.
