TALK BY LIVE MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY LEGEND DAVID REDFERN 7th Feb

[bill gilliam]

City of London and Cripplegate Photo Group host a talk by live music photography legend David Redfern on Tuesday 7th Feb.

David Redfern’s career began in the twilight jazz clubs of 1960’s London. By the 1970's David had firmly established his name as one of the top music photographers in the business. In 1980 Pete Townsend's Eel Pie Company published David Redfern's Jazz Album. Lavishly illustrated with many of David's finest jazz photographs, it was highly acclaimed by critics and public alike. In the same year, at Frank Sinatra's request, David stepped into Terry O'Neill's shoes as official tour photographer.

In 1995 three of David's images were used on US postage stamps (Louis Armstrong, Thelonious Monk & Coleman Hawkins).

Today David is more active than ever in the picture business. He has been the President of BAPLA (British Association of Picture Libraries and Agencies) for the last 18 years, and is still traveling the world photographing music festivals. There will be a small charge of £5 on the door for non-members on this very special talk.
