EP126 - Jill Furmanovsky - Multi-Award-Winning Music Photographer - RockArchive.com

On this episode of The Paul Weller Fan Podcast, we hear the
incredible story of another absolute legend - the
multi-award-winning music photographer - Jill Furmanovsky.


We kick off her story in 1965, as she emigrated from Zimbabwe
with her parents to England, on to studying graphic design and
starting her career in 1972, when she became in-house
photographer at the Rainbow Theatre specialising in live rock
concerts.Over the last fifty years she has photographed some of
the greatest musicians in the world including Led Zeppelin, The
Rolling Stones, Madness, Debbie Harry, Pink Floyd, Oasis, Bob
Dylan, Joy Division, Queen, Tom Waits, Chrissie Hynde, The Clash,
Bjork and Amy Winehouse...


And of course - The Jam, capturing many incredible shots from
their live gigs, along with Paul Weller for The Face Magazine and
at Glastonbury Festival as other examples...


We also hear about RockArchive.com - an incredible online home
for music photography, that Jill founded in 1998, which features
over 1000 images by more than 80 photographers and graphic
designers from all over the world.
