This large format 27.75" x 21.63" photo of Jimi Hendrix was shot by renowned photographer Colin Beard, who hand signed, dated it 1982, and notated it #15 of 25. A great color photo of the legendary music icon, this makes for a great piece of artwork.
Australian Colin Beard is a famed 1960s rock shutter man who became the founding photographer for Australia's first pop music magazine entitled Go-Set. Besides capturing images of the Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Janis Joplin, Cher, The Who, Cat Stevens, The Kinks and more he shot what are today iconic images of the electrifying Jimi Hendrix at the Monterey International Pop Festival in 1967.
Of the experience, he later told abc.net.au in 2009: "I turned around and there he was... the wild guitar man and now he looked so human. He smoked, he yawned, he scratched and he listened. Booker T and the MGs were playing; perhaps it was the attraction for him - he had played with them once before he left for England."
