Kritik
'This collection of timeless photographs gives us an up close inside look at this uniquely complex man and brilliant iconic artist who forever changed the world. One love...' - Lenny Kravitz



'No one will ever forget the impact Bob and Jamaican music had on the world.' - Keith Richards


'Kate Simon has always been one of my favourite photographers. She captures intimate moments that we have never seen.' - Cedella Marley


'After looking at thousands of negatives of Bob, some of which I had never printed before, I had a dream that Bob was still alive and that he was playing that night. Can you imagine if you could have the chance to see Bob Marley today? What would he be singing about?' - Kate Simon


'Kate shot in an honest, direct manner. She did not seek to expose, but to shoot the picture her subject pictured - the joyful, mutable moments. How fortunate we are to have these images.' - Patti Smith


'She had a sort of war correspondent feel to her; she would get right into it. Somehow she had the ability to communicate and to get everybody to relax and to take the great pictures that she got.' - Chris Blackwell

Autor

Legendary punk poetess Patti Smith had been writing for Creem magazine since 1971 and had several books of poetry published when she found international fame with her acclaimed album Horses in 1975. The punk movement that took so much inspiration from Horses rarely conjured music of such literacy and intelligence. In 2007, Patti was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and in 2022, Patti was awarded the Légion d'honneur by the French Ministry of Culture, France's highest accolade. In 2010, she released her bestselling memoir, Just Kids, chronicling her moving relationship with Robert Mapplethorpe, and the beautiful follow up, M Train. Patti is still writing and performing with the same unerring eye for 'truth and beauty' today.
