In The Eye Of The Rock'n'roll Hurricane: The Photography of Neal
"The more intensely you look at them, the more each picture will tell you." Neal Preston's legendary music images include some of the most memorable ever made of rock's most iconic stars. If this era could be described as a hurricane, Neal captured this from his unique position in the eye of the Rock'n'Roll hurricane. "In a room with five people or 50,000, Neal always seems to find a place of his own, to capture a moment not noticed or looked for by anyone else. His live photography perfectly relays the feeling of having been at that concert, to feel the excitement and energy and to visualise the music and identity of the subject." Neal has toured with Led Zeppelin, The Who, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, Bruce Springsteen, and countless others. This special, limited edition book has been produced in collaboration with The Lightpower Collection and features some of the greatest highlights from Neal's 40-year career, carefully selected to represent the finest work from his extensive catalogue. Produced to coincide with an exhibition at the Frankfurt Musikmesse in April 2015, this book has accompanying text in English and German. Over 65 colour and b/w photos
