PHOTOGRAPHER: BOB GRUEN


Bob Gruen captures the immortals of rock new book:"ROCK SEEN"

The legendary rock and roll photographer recalls the music idols whose power can be seen as well as heard has a new book of most of the legendary rock stars. He began with a very young-unbearded-chap by the name of Bob Dylan--lol. He continues to reside in the village in NYC and still has that fascination & enthusiasm he had back when he was a permanent fixture at places like CBGB.

This pictorial book he calls a "family album". He never saw his assignments as "jobs" because he loved being "there".

Of course his most popular, most recognizable and most stolen image is that of the late John Lennon in the NEW YORK CITY cut-off tee shirt (coincidentally a gift from Gruen to Lennon).

You can see him tomorrow:
