Bowie and Schapiro kidded and laughed about shooting a series of close-up portraits on a putrid green background because they felt it was the worst possible background colour for a magazine, and so they did on this lark - with the image eventually becoming a People magazine cover.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49575546323217,"sku":"GOR008691124","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53149337387281,"sku":"GOR014780123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1576878066.jpg?v=1751433558"},{"product_id":"schapiro-s-heroes-book-steve-schapiro-9781576873786","title":"Schapiro's Heroes","description":"An extraordinary collection of behind-the-scenes photographs of famous people including Muhammad Ali, Robert Kennedy, Andy Warhol, Martin Luther King Jr, Jackie O, Barbra Streisand and Truman Capote, from celebrated documentarian Steve Schapiro.

These largely unknown jazz photos – shot just before his career breakthrough – showcase his early mastery and his empathy for his subjects, making Jazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard, and Riverside Sessions an essential archive.   In the early ’60s, when Schapiro arrived on the scene, New York jazz was enjoying a golden age. A young freelance photographer who had grown up in the Bronx and somehow snagged a gig with Riverside Records, he began voraciously documenting shows, players, venues, recording sessions and gatherings both in his native New York and later in Chicago. Whether it’s Sonny Rollins lifting weights backstage, or Bobby Timmons lost in an instant of discovery at the piano, Schapiro was on their wavelength.   Written by US jazz journalist Richard Scheinin Jazz: Best of the Apollo, Village Vanguard, and Riverside Sessions features dozens of never-before-seen photos of jazz legends like Cannonball Adderley, Melba Liston, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Rollins, Count Basie and more.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51606933438737,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51606933635345,"sku":"NGR9781788843423","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53546911662353,"sku":"NIN9781788843423","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53595803418897,"sku":"NLS9781788843423","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1788843428.jpg?v=1769080091"},{"product_id":"ali-book-steve-schapiro-9781576878392","title":"Ali","description":"Ali collects the best of Steve Schapiro's images of late fighter Muhammad Ali, many in print for the first time ever. The collection offers a glimpse of a star on the rise; Schapiro spent five days with Ali at the tender age of 21, before he had even adopted the Muhammad Ali name, when he still went by Cassius Clay. Seen together, these photographs provide an indelible portrait of the early life of one of the most talented, graceful, controversial, athletic, and influential American figures of the 20th century.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52101803868433,"sku":"CIN1576878392G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52959550243089,"sku":"CIN1576878392VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781576878392.jpg?v=1757094607"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-steve-schapiro.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
