Jim Marshall tributes continue

jimi-marshall-tny.jpgPicture editor Honore Brown, posting at The New Yorker's Photo Booth blog, writes that photographs such as those by Jim Marshall (who died last month) "don't get made anymore." Brown says, about a 2009 show, "while watching Marshall’s slide show it became clear to me how intimate and unobstructed his relationships were with his subjects...he was one man with a camera making pictures. The result is a body of work that gives a direct window into the jazz and rock that galvanized a generation."

Random access: I came across this last night and had to post it. The late Levi Stubbs, a capella.
