Nearly 40 years ago, Jim Marshall embarked on The Rolling Stones 1972 tour as their official life photographer. After starting his career in photography in 1958, Marshall gained unrivaled access to jazz and rock artists throughout the 1960s and 1970s. From Jimi Hendrix burning his guitar at the Monterey International Pop Music Festival in 1967 to Bob Dylan kicking a tire around Greenwich Village, Marshall's ability to be in the right place at the right time turned into a vast estate of iconic images.
