Exclusive Johnny Cash Giclée by Baron Wolman
Here is the third image by legendary rock photographer Baron Wolman (Rolling Stone Magazine’s first chief photographer). The Rock Art Show will release limited edition 16” x 20” giclées (pronounced "gee-clay") of three of his classic images. (What's a giclée?) Here is the third image of the three. Click the following link if you would like to check out the special "Rock Art Show - Baron Wolman" page. Here is the image of Johnny Cash.
The moody black & white Johnny Cash photograph was taken backstage in the dressing room of the Circle Star Theatre (subsequently demolished) in Redwood City, California, in December 1967. Wolman recalled that Cash seemed strangely troubled before the show and he speculated whether Johnny would even go onstage. Fortunately, Wolman's worries were unfounded. A few moments later, Cash was in the spotlight, microphone in hand, and that evening, for a wildly enthusiastic audience he and his wife June gave another outstanding performance.
