Notes

Foreword by Sir Harold Evans, in which he writes:

"This stunning collection of photographs by Ian Wright, many never published, affords us a rare pleasure. Here we are, face to face, with the artists who created what we now call the Swinging Sixties and we are intimately back-stage with them. They cannot know what awaits them when they go out to perform, still less could any of them guess whether they would flop or ascend to fame and fortune."

Comments and Reviews


JPGR&B SUBS 3rd Apr 2022		Review Annotation: Ian Wright was a pop photographer in the 1960s and captured many stars, including the Beatles, on film when working in the northeast of England. Wright's work periodically appears in exhibitions, the latest being in London 2009. His early work is perhaps of most interest, for while it is not 'artistic' in the way one might describe (say) the 'Peter Kaye' shots, Wright's photographs are incredibly vibrant and atmospheric and seem to capture the excitement of those package tours through Britain in the 1963-1965 period extremely well.
