Some of the artists for whom he photographed album covers are Aretha Franklin, Linda Rondstadt, James Taylor, James Brown, Bonnie Raitt, Ringo Starr, Tina Turner, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Doobie Brothers, The Steve Miller Band, and The Allman Brothers. How’s that for a star-studded line up?
