Synopsis

There was a time when photography pushed musicians directly onto the path of myth. Portraits as totems, images as fetishes, photo-sessions as group analysis. The whole world vibrated in unison with the music of its idols accompanied by icons created by great rock photographers.

In this volume with a golden cover like the world of rock music, Luciano Viti takes the shots that made him famous out of his magical objective, recounting the most important musical encounters of his thirty-year career with irony, tenderness, fun and passion.
