6539 - STARTING OVER WITH JOHN AND YOKO: THE PHOTOGRAPHS -Author Signed

BRAND NEW - Signed By Photographer Roger Farrington and noted author/narrator Ken Womack. We are the only place you may obtain signed copies on line. - On August 7, 1980, John and Yoko made their triumphant return to the recording studio after a self-imposed five year absence. Roger Farrington, an up-and-coming photographer from Boston, was hired to get "The Shot" that would announce their comeback. It would be John's most intense press scrutiny since the heady days of the Beatles' maiden voyage to America in 1964, and for Roger, it would be the assignment of a lifetime. Just four months later, John would be gone, plunging the world into mourning.
Reproducing, for the first time, the entire run of Roger's iconic photographs from that day, 'Starting Over' transports readers back to 1980 and into Manhattan's Hit Factory, where John and Yoko recorded their acclaimed LP, Double Fantasy.
With supporting photos and other ephemera, Roger and renowned Beatles historian Ken Womack capture a poignant moment in music history and provide an insider's look at celebrity photography in the pre-digital age. Soft cover, 164 pages.
