1. ETHAN RUSSELL PHOTOGRAPHS: A Fine Art Monograph
A 248 page11x14 fine art book, exquisitely printed.
Click image below to buy in the store.
My latest book and the only book that is just the photography: It includes The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, plus a wide array of other artists including Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Linda Ronstadt, The Eagles, and many more. It is also about the places where I got to be: on the roof with The Beatles, on all of The Rolling Stones 1969 Tour including Altamont, The Rolling Stones 1972 Tour, the album cover for Who's Next and Quadrophenia, The Beatles' last photo session, and more. This book is the only book you can buy which includes exquisite high quality reproductions of them all.
The book is printed on the finest coated stock, and each photo has a separate varnish. With n Introduction by Shannon Perich, Curator Photographic History Collection, Smithsonian National Museum of American History, and a Preface by Neal Preston, photographer.
2. THE ROLLING STONES LET IT BLEED (Rhino Edition)
I wrote this book. It took me SIX years. I knew that Altamont - while a defining event - was the outlier of a magnificent tour, the rest of which was unique in a way that was never repeated and I was on the entire tour and had photographs of all of it.
It is a BIG book: 15 1/2 by 12 1/4, 419 pages, almost 13 lbs.
"I just received my copy of “Let it Bleed” and I have to say I was blown away. I’ve bought a number of Genesis Books over the years and always appreciated their level of craftsmanship, but your book surpasses anything they’ve done. The print is great and the book is the best of its kind I’ve ever seen."
3. ETHAN RUSSELL: AN AMERICAN STORY.
Originally released as an e-book (because of hundreds of internet links embedded in the book) it is now only available as an interactive pdf, available in the store.
4. DEAR MR FANTASY: DIARY OF A DECADE. (Houghton Mifflin).
It was my first book. Now out of print, it was originally released in 1983. It is more of a Diary (as the sub-title states) than a book of photography, in keeping with my desire at the time to be a writer, before my extraordinary turn nto the world of rock and roll. Copies still can be found on eBay, it seems, from $8 to $100.
5. THE BEATLES BY THE BEATLES
While not, strictly speaking "my" book the majority of it are my photographs and the best way to see the bulk of my work with The Beatles and Let It Be. Available at Amazon, etc.
