John Lennon: The New York Years by Bob Gruen
Bob Gruen first photographed John Lennon in 1971 and became his personal photographer and close friend shortly thereafter. Over the course of the next nine years, right up until Lennon was shot and killed, Gruen photographed him extensively. The book is filled with photos and reflections by Gruen on the circumstances surrounding the photo such as John's relationship with Yoko, the role of the band Elephant's Memory, how he dealt with fame, his first days with his son Sean, how he spiralled downward on alcohol fuelled binges. It is a true behind-the-scenes look at Lennon as a performer, a legend, and a person.
Bob Gruen is one of the world's most respected rock and roll photographers, and was John Lennon's personal photographer throughout the 1970s and until Lennon's death. He has also worked with major rock and roll attractions including Elton John, Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, and Tina Turner. His work has appeared in numerous galleries including the National Portrait Gallery in London.
