During the years of 1979-1986, Boston and the surrounding area, was a hot-spot for the rock and punk music scene. I was fortunate to photograph some of those bands during their performances. They included Anthrax, B-52's, Billy Idol, Bill Bruford, Cheap Trick, DYS, Howard DeVoto, Human Sexual Response, Ian Hunter, Jerry's Kids, Joan Jett, Lene Lovich, Mick Ronson, New Models, The Cars, The Jam, The Plastics, The Shirts, Proletariat, Talking Heads, The Clash, Tom Petty, X, and XTC.

Select images are now available as fine art prints. Prints are custom printed from the original negatives by me in a traditional wet darkroom to archival standards using the finest in gelatin silver fiber-base papers. Prints are signed in verso (on back) and are offered in one size only, 16"x20", at a cost of $300 plus shipping. Shipping available to USA or international.
