About this title

Synopsis

A one-of-a-kind collection featuring award-winning photographer Michael Grecco’s iconic and never-before-seen images of punk and post-punk’s quintessential bands.

Introduction by Jim Sullivan
Foreword by Fred Schneider of the B-52’s

In the late 1970s, punk rock music began to evolve into the post-punk and new wave movements that dominated until the early ‘90s. During this time, prolific photographer and filmmaker Michael Grecco was in the thick of things, documenting the club scene in places like Boston and New York, and getting shots on- and backstage with bands such as The Cramps, Dead Kennedys, Talking Heads, Human Sexual Response, Elvis Costello, Joan Jett, the Ramones, and many others. Grecco captured in black and white and color the raw energy, sweat, and antics that characterized the alternative music of the time.

Punk, Post Punk, New Wave: Onstage, Backstage, In Your Face, 1978–1991 features stunning, never-before-seen photography from this iconic period in music. In addition to concert photography, he also shot album covers and promotional pieces that round out this impressively extensive photo collection—a quintessential piece of music history for anyone looking for backstage access into the careers of punk and post punk’s most beloved bands.

“In 162 gorgeous color and black-and-white photos, Grecco takes readers back to a vibrant bygone era as his camera captures the performers’ raw energy and outrageousness both onstage and off.” —Newsday
