I ordered it from Amazon and received it yesterday. After having looked through it, I heartily recommend it to all of you. The book is wonderful on several levels: - -All the pictures are taken with Leica M2 and M4 cameras. - -The pictures are wonderful portraits, mostly informal, just the kind of shots I try to get when I photograph family and friends. - -And last but not least, the subject matter...the musicians in the book are mostly from the 60s and 70s, all the greats are there from the time when rock music was made by real people on real instruments and not on computers by record company executives. The book is $35 at Amazon, a very reasonable price for this type of book. Nathan - -- Nathan Wajsman Overijse, Belgium Photo page: http://members.tripod.com/~belgiangator
