Volume 1: Through the Lens<br />

of Music Photographer<br />

Rob Shanahan<br />

By Rob Shanahan<br />

(hardcover) $45.00<br />

From one of the most published photographers<br />

in the music industry, Volume<br />

1 is Shanahan’s first published collection<br />

of concert, behind-the-scenes and studio<br />

photographs. What makes Volume 1 so<br />

pleasing, beyond the vivid images, is<br />

Shanahan’s enthusiasm for his work, which he<br />

conveys in brief yet animated anecdotes on<br />

the “key” pages that are spaced conveniently<br />

throughout his book. The author is also an<br />

amateur drummer, which explains the number<br />

of beat-keepers featured here, including Ringo<br />

Starr who has penned the book’s Forward.<br />

From icons to relative obscurities, Shanahan<br />

makes every subject an engaging image.<br />
