Happy 80th Birthday Sir Mick Jagger
Happy 80th birthday Mick. I first photographed The Rolling Stones in 1976. It was at Earls Court, London. Like a few other people, I didn't have a photo pass. My fellow photographer and great friend, Matthew Taylor, bought some tickets and snuck our cameras in. I had a Nikon F2As and lenses, my Hasselblad 500CM under my arm, and some equipment down my trousers. Mick Jagger was then and still is one of the fastest people on stage and very difficult to photograph, especially with a Hasselblad. I have been lucky to shoot the Stones in many places around the world. So, once again, Happy 80th Mick. Here are a few shots I have taken of the man himself.
