Reviews"Exquisite, vibey, joyful, and sometimes tear-inducing photos.... While many fans know of Jim Marshall from his brilliant photos of '60s and '70s rockers, he was far more than a rock photog, and this career-spanning anthology should surprise and delight readers with its expansive portraiture of jazz icons, political and civil rights events, coal miners, denizens of Times Square, and other subjects." -- Guardians of Guitar -- -, "A masterful compendium of the photographer's life.... Jim Marshall's photographs have become a visual diary of the rebellious spirit of rock and roll." -- Huck Magazine, "Few photographers have had a life and career as historic as Jim Marshall. His pictures not only capture some of the most influential artists of the 20th century but also established a new level of intimacy in the relationship between entertainers and the photojournalists documenting them." -- Buzzfeed, " Show Me the Picture further confirms the importance of Jim Marshall's photographs and will endure as the definitive collection of his work." -- Black amp; White Magazine, "Magnificent.... This gorgeous volume serves as a vivid time capsule from a pivotal period in American pop culture." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review, "You've surely seen some of Jim Marshall's iconic rock photographs, but the sheer breadth of his work is pure 'wow!' " -- Zoom Street, "Marshall was everywhere--Greenwich Village, Monterey Pop, the Haight, Woodstock--shooting a body of work that was raw, relaxed, intimate, and (pardon the overused word) iconic." -- Mother Jones, "In Jim Marshall: Show Me the Picture, we get a full portrait of a master documentary photographer; a man who captured stunning images at the early stages of the Civil Rights Movement and took that same sense of perspective from the jazz festival and nightclub scenes of the early 1960s through that decade and into the next." -- PopMatters, " Jim Marshall: Show Me the Picture shares his best work from a legendary career that spanned five decades." -- CNN.com -- -, "You've surely seen some of Jim Marshall's iconic rock photographs, but the sheer breadth of his work is pure 'wow!'

Marshall respected his subjects--gaining him unparalleled insight and access--whom he captured, almost impossibly, without cropping or added lighting. The power leaps from Marshall's photographs like Peter Frampton in flight." -- Shelf Awareness, starred review -- -, "In this new book, readers can tag along with legendary rock 'n' roll photographer Jim Marshall to some of the most incredible concerts of the '60s and '70s.
