In 1962 Ian WRight was a 16-year-old junior photographer for the "Teenage Special," a new supplement to the Northern Echo Newspaper in the Northeast of England. He was on hand to photograph the creation of The Swinging Sixties, intimate portraits of such young performers as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Roy Orbison, Ike and Tina Turner, Marianne Faithfull, Tom Jones, Moody Blues, Englebert Humperdink, the Animals, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Cash and many, many more.
Now in his book On The Brink of Fame: Pop Icons in the Swinging Sixties you can share his backstage moments with John, Paul, George and Ringo, see Mick Jagger with a boyish fresh face, and read some of the most amusing anecdotal stories about rock icons ever written.
