A unique photographic look at America's greatest musical art forms—blues, jazz, R&B, soul, rock & roll, Cajun, and zydeco—and the musical greats who keep the music alive today.
Fans of blues, soul, jazz, rock & roll, and R&B are passionate and devoted. Inside the Moment is for readers who love American music based on these African American traditions as well as appreciate fine-art photography.
This book brings to light photojournalist Joe Rosen’s 45-plus-year body of photographic work, which has largely been unseen until now.
Presented are the author’s new and powerful images of both famous and lesser-known artists, which will further the reader’s insight and enjoyment. The author adds his own historical context and personal accounts while photographing the artists, enhancing the impact of the images.
Longtime music fans will see fresh images of favorites—such as John Lee Hooker, Lightnin’ Hopkins, B.B. King, Ray Charles, Little Richard, Fats Domino, Dexter Gordon, Chet Baker, Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, and Buckwheat Zydeco—and perhaps discover new artists to listen to and enjoy.
Newcomers will see strong, moving images and also read the author’s memorable first-person encounters, leading them to music genres and artists that may be new to them.
