Death on Credit
Senior Member
Barry Feinstein, who was the exclusive photographer for two Bob Dylan tours, and also photographed more than 500 album covers for such artists as George Harrison, Janis Joplin, Miles Davis and many more, has died at age 80, reports the Associated Press.
His work with Dylan was probably his most extensive. In addition to "The Times They Are a Changin'," Feinstein was the singer's exclusive photographer on Dylan's 1966 European tour and his 1974 tour with The Band.
Feinstein also took the photograph of George Harrison sitting among gnomes that was used on the front cover of the "All Things Must Pass" album. Some of his other well-known album cover shots included Janis Joplin's "Pearl," Dave Mason's "Alone Together," Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are a Changin'" and Gram Parson's "GP." He also shot many other well-known names, including Donovan, Judy Garland, Donovan and Steve McQueen.
According to Rolling Stone.com, Feinstein also took the first version of the Rolling Stones' "Beggar's Banquet" cover, the one with the toilet seat that was initially replaced with a plain white cover, though the toilet seat picture was used on later releases.
