Congratulations are in order as Jim Marshall’s “The Rolling Stones 1972” book, featuring a foreward by Keith Richards, intro by Joel Selvin and edited by Team Marsall’s talented, Michelle Dunn Marsh, continues to garner critical acclaim, press and sales. In fact, the book has become a fixture on Amazon’s Best Sellers for Portrait Photography list; the first run has sold out, and Chronicle Books is in the midst of a second printing in time for the holidays.

Here’s a bit from Michelle Dunn Marsh’s contribution to the book that sums up its impact quite nicely: “Though this tour is legendary for its raucous, at times unbelievable offstage behavior, something else is documented here — the camaraderie formed through hours spent waiting in antiseptic greenrooms as a brief calm before the storm of performance: conversations to fill the hours of lounging, waiting to take the stage; the availability of food and, more importantly, liquor; and the lonely, less-glamorous reality of long hours traveling to a location for a brief but powerful ninety minutes in front of the fans.  In less than one week, Marshall captured this reality through images both of and beyond their time.”

West Coast Show Set to Open Oct. 6

While the popular East Coast show at New York City’s Steven Kasher Gallery recently came to a close, images from the book can still be viewed at the innovative and inspiring EMP Museum in Seattle and the show at Jim's West Coast gallery, San Francisco Art Exchange, is getting set to open on Thursday, October 6. Speaking of Jim Marshall, The Rolling Stones and galleries, I thought it would be neat to include with this post of tasty sampling of some of the 12 images from the “The Rolling Stones 1972” book that are available as limited-edition prints at the JMPLLC partner galleries in NYC (Steven Kasher Gallery), San Francisco (San Francisco Art Exchange), and London (Snap Galleries).

And remember when you buy any of these prints you’re buying a certified bit of history and Jim Marshall Photography LLC is the sole authority to provide a Certificate of Authenticity & Provenance from the estate of Jim Marshall.
