Rock & Roll Legends

Photography by Michael Friedman

Lost in storage for nearly 50 years, the negatives these incredible photos of iconic musicians were discovered this past year in Michael Friedman’s attic. 

From 1967 through the 1980’s Michael Friedman had the good fortune of working with and befriending dozens of highly respected and legendary musical artists, initially as a publicist, and later as a manager and music producer. Friedman was also an avid photographer, especially during the time he worked with legendary music manager, Albert Grossman in New York and Woodstock. Due to his unique access and relationships with the artists his candid photography was able to capture the essence of that historic period in American folk, rock, and pop music.
