Jim Marshall r.i.p.

Jim Marshall passed away this week. Marshall was the greatest music photographer ever. If one picture is worth a thousand words, than Marshall was James Joyce multiplied by infinity. Here is some of his work. I am sure you know many of his iconic photos and perhaps weren't even aware that he was the master behind the lens.

Definitely some good ones there. My favorite of his, didn't even know it was his till I read all the obits, was Dylan rolling the tire down the street. Bob Greun is right up there too, especially some of his Clash work.
