The photographer and the photos
Stephen Goldblatt is a noted cinematographer and he was one of the photographers who took part in the Mad Day Out photo session with The Beatles in 1968. Some of his photos had laid in a drawer for 40 years and are now avaiable in this edition.

To celebrate this release there was an exhibit of the photos at the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism and also Rolling Stone published a slideshow of the work to celebrate John Lennon’s 70th birthday.
