An original 8″ x 10″ Jim Marshall photograph of Miles Davis, backstage at San Francisco’s Winterland Auditorium, in 1971.  This is a rare image of Davis smiling, something he rarely did in public.  This is an original handprinted silver gelatin print, and it’s in spectacular mint condition, with Jim Marshall’s studio stamp on the reverse. The late Jim Marshall was one of the most highly acclaimed music photographers ever; he was the chief photographer at Woodstock, the only photographer allowed backstage at the Beatles last concert, and shot legendary photographs of Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones Johnny Cash, and many other music legends. His photographs adorn more than 500 album covers including the Allman Brothers “At The Fillmore East” and the Jefferson Airplane’s Volunteers. His photographs are highly collectible and this one is a beautiful example.
