BARON WOLMAN is one of the foremost and accomplished rock & roll photographers ever. He joined ROLLING STONE magazine when it first started, and shot more than twenty covers for the magazine in its early days from Nov 1967(Tina Turner) to Feb 1971 (James Taylor). Baron's lens captured the royalty of the 60's pop and rock explosion: Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Cash, The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, the Who, Jerry Garcia, and many more. Wolman credits his lyrical and close-up images to the intimate access he had to the stars of the burgeoning genre. Unlike the highly protected and packaged pop and rock stars of today, Wolman enjoyed the off-hand directness featured in the early days of ROLLING STONE.
