Every Shot A Money Shot - Show Me the Picture review by PM
Jim Marshall is an iconic photographer who took pictures of Icons when there were actual icons in the music industry.
He was at Woodstock, good friends with Duane Allman, Janis Joplin,Jimi Hendrix,John Coltrane, he snorted, drank and shot his way through the Rolling Stones most legendary US tours.
When it happened, he was there.
Get the picture?
You certainly will if you watch this enlightening documentary about Marshall ; whose life was as colourful as his subjects.
Sadly its obvious that greedy music industry corporations wouldn't allow the doc to feature some of the artists Marshall mingled with even though his snaps probably sold truckloads of product for them.
A legend,a true star......we'll never see the likes of again
