The grain in this black-and-white shot is exactly what you want from a 1974 club gig—you can almost hear the feedback and the crowd noise coming off the wall. It's the kind of image that makes you stop and stare every time you walk past it.

I’ve had this print up for a week and the way the grain captures the smoke and grit of that night is incredible. It really feels like you’re standing right there at Max’s Kansas City, watching them play.

The contrast in this print is perfect—you can see every bead of sweat on Lenny’s guitar neck. It’s like having a piece of that night right on my wall.
