The Rolling Stones – “Let it Bleed” – Deluxe Edition - Illustrated Book
The Rolling Stones, Altamont and the end of the Sixties. In the history of rock ‘n’ roll, 1969 was a turning point. This year, Ethan A. Russell was one of the very few to accompany the Rolling Stones on their “Let-It-Bleed” tour through the USA. And he always had his camera with him. In hotel rooms, at rehearsals, backstage. His pictures and texts provide a look behind the scenes and convey an uncensored impression of the Stones world and the rock ‘n’ roll circus of those years. Russell’s photographs capture magical moments – right up to the tragic concert in Altamont with which the band ended their US tour and which is now considered a disillusioning key event of the Love & Peace generation.
Let it Bleed is a book that not only celebrates one of the band’s best albums of all time — with hits like “Gimme Shelter” and “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” — but also a powerful moment between two charismatic decades that brought big changes.
The deluxe edition is limited to 750 copies and includes an 11″ x 17″ SILVER GELATIN black and white print by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, signed and hand-numbered by author Ethan Russell.
An incredible 420-page book, hand-sewn and bound, with photos taken during the 1969 historic tour that included Altamont. The Deluxe version comes in a noble folding box and was created using high-quality materials.
Ethan Russell is a multi-Grammy nominated photographer, director, and writer. He photographed covers for the Beatles “Let It Be”, “Hey Jude” – “The Rolling Stones Honky Tonk Women”, “Through The Past Darkly” – “The Who Who’s Next” and “Quadrophenia”.
History
Lightpower was founded in Germany in 1978 as a Lighting Rental Company. Today Lightpower is an internationally established distribution company for stage and studio lighting. The Lightpower Collection emerged from a corporate culture that has grown over many years. It consists of photographs and original album cover artwork from many of the greatest photographers and artists.
Well over 100,000 visitors viewed the Limelight Gallery’s exhibitions and experienced the DNA of Rock’N’Roll up close.
Neal Preston’s rock ‘n’ roll photography is the exposed heart of this collection and consists of over 70 large-format original fine art prints. Preston’s archive is one of the most extensive in the world and includes every major artist in rock history. These images are currently being exhibited on a world tour. Most recently they were at the High End Show Munich, Tilburg, NAMM Show in Anaheim, at the Stage | Set | Scenery exhibited in Berlin and Sweden.
Legendary photographers such as Bob Gruen, Michael Zagaris, and Henry Diltz are also part of the Lightpower Collection portfolio. Chris Floyd have joined the collection and are adding to it.
Fine art prints and high-quality illustrated books can be purchased online and offline from the Limielight Gallery.
The Lightpower Collection operates the Limelight Gallery with currently two showrooms in Paderborn and Frankfurt am Main. The Limelight Gallery team also develops exhibition concepts and is happy to make the works available for events.
Proceeds from exhibitions and sales of fine art prints and books benefit foundations such as “Behind the Scenes”, “Backup–The Technical Entertainment Charity” and #handforahand.
