Elliot Landy's new book about THE BAND


 
A: To help expand the Band's Legacy for Us All
 
In 1968-1969 I spent most of my time with The Band photographing them at work and at play in their homes in and around Woodstock, NY. We were friends and I traveled with them as they began touring and recording and produced the iconic images for the “Music from Big Pink” and “The Band” albums. I was the only photographer that had any access to them during this period. It was a time of creativity, music, marijuana and brotherhood.  I shot over 10,000 photographs, most of which have never been seen before. In 2015 I published my first book of these photos (The Band Photographs, 1968-1969) but it only contained 200 images and was limited to160 pages.
 
A year or two later I began looking at a trove of photographs I had uncovered in the process of making the first book. I found an incredible number of really beautiful images that I felt must be published in order to complete a true pictorial history of this amazing group.
 
Announcing the birth of Volume 2 of The Band Photographs
 
 
This new book, Volume 2, will be the the same 12x12 inch size,160 pages as the first book and printed with the same beautiful quality and heavyweighht paper. It will be a suitable mate to it and will fit beautifully alongside your favorite vinyl records by The Band. 
 
In addition to reserving your copy of The Band Photographs, 1968-1969, Volume 2, this Kickstarter campaign offers a selection of Fine Art prints, Lithos and Posters, all signed by me, at prices which are 30-50% less than they normally cost.
 
 
 
With your support it will be possible to publish The Band Photographs, 1968-1969 Volume 2 and help expand The Band's legacy for us all.
