Exclusive Jimi Hendrix Giclée by Baron Wolman

The Rock Art Show has teamed up with legendary rock photographer Baron Wolman (Rolling Stone Magazine’s first chief photographer and one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet) to release limited edition 16” x 20” giclées (pronounced "gee-clay") of three of his classic images. (What's a giclée?) Over the next couple of post we will show you all three images. If you can't wait for the rest of the posts, you can check out this special "Rock Art Show - Baron Wolman" page. For now, check out this Jimi Hendrix giclée. It Rocks!

Jimi Hendrix, Fillmore West, 1968

The Jimi Hendrix black & white giclée is one of Baron's most famous photographs. The iconic image has appeared on the covers of two of his books of photographs as well as the covers of various music magazines. Wolman comments, "That shot of Jimi is one of my all-time favorites. It was taken in February 1968, during Jimi's first San Francisco concert-hall appearances. He played two shows at the Fillmore West, two more at Winterland. I was on-stage the night I made this photo and was so into shooting Hendrix that it almost felt as if I were in the band, playing my camera as he was playing his guitar."
