Morrison Hotel Photos

Posted on June 13, 2011 by Leave a comment

Managed to snap a few shots in the back room of Morrison Hotel, the amazing fine art music photography gallery, next door to the now closed and world famous club, CBGB’s, at 315 Bowery.

They represent loads of photographers, such as Eddie KramerHenry Diltz and the late great rock photographer – Jim Marshall – the king of rock photography.

They also have a large part of the archive available to flick through on their website. It’s well worth a look and has a lot of unseen shots of some of the biggest in the business by some of the best in the business.

These few I managed to quickly shoot in the flagship Bowery gallery before “the Dude” told me to stop but really this only got the conversation going and we ended up chatting for quite a while about their archive.

He spoke of the many unseen shot’s of artist’s that may potentially never see the light of day, shot’s of party’s, people and debauchery, covered by the photographers. We also spoke at length about Jim Marshall and his amazing body of work and the incredible access he had to many of the most important musicians of our time.

Great shots here of Clapton by Pattie Boyd (the former wife of both George Harrison and Clapton), Keith Richards and Ron Wood having a great laugh in the Stones jet and The Doors hanging out in the street. Check Out the archives at www.morrisonhotelgallery.com
