Jim Marshall was a renowned photographer with such a formidable reputation in his field that he is often referred to as the "Godfather Of Rock And Roll Photography". Marshall photographed some of the biggest legends in the music and entertainment industry. He was chief photographer at the Monterey Pop Festival and Woodstock and the only photographer given backstage access at the Beatles last concert at Candlestick Park, 29 August, 1966. He only began printing and selling his work in his latter years; he printed very few, with the majority in open editions, making this particular collection of his photographs very rare.
