Subject: [Leica] Not Fade Away

A couple of months ago, someone on the LUG recommended Jim Marshall's
book "Not Fade Away--The Rock & Roll Photography of Jim Marshall". 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.
