Talamon saw it all during the golden age of soul, R&B, and
funk. Throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, this young African
American photographer from Los Angeles found himself backstage with
an all-access pass to the heart of the music scene. He caught his
first big break landing a position as a staff photographer at SOUL
Newspaper in LA in the early 1970s, just as soul, R&B, and funk
were becoming part of the mainstream. He captured the rehearsals
and sound checks, recording sessions and costume fittings, the
quiet reflective moments and life on the road, and, of course, the
wild photo shoots and memorable performances. These photographs
define an era famed for its glamour, fabulous fashions, and utter
devotion to the groove. Including close to 300 photographs from
1972 to 1982, the extensive Talamon archives are presented in full
detail for the first time. Whether you're a diehard soul fan or a
thrilled newcomer to the aesthetic magic of the 1970s, the
collection exudes the infectious spirit of an exuberant age.
Featuring icons such as Earth, Wind & Fire; Marvin Gaye; Diana
Ross; Parliament-Funkadelic; Al Green; Gil Scott-Heron; James
Brown; Barry White; Rick James; Aretha Franklin; the Jackson Five;
Donna Summer; and Chaka Khan and many others; there are also
several stops at the legendary Soul Train studios. Talamon
documented a visual period in black music that lasted way past the
midnight hour and will never come again. This release is an
affordable, compact version of our Art Edition, limited to 500
copies and featuring a portfolio of four prints signed by Bruce W.
Talamon.
