‘Who Shot Rock & Roll’

‘Who Shot Rock & Roll’ snaps the photographers – USATODAY.com
Who Shot Rock & Roll: A Photographic History, 1955-Present – News – Paul McCartney

I’ll have to watch this documentary sometime. Below are a couple of videos in which Mary McCartney discusses the work of her late mother, Linda McCartney. Linda McCartney’s photos of Janis Joplin, the Rolling Stones, the Beatles, and of course, her husband Paul (and their family) are among some of my favorites. Her photos of Janis Joplin are particularly interesting.

Below is an older article I came across discussing the rerelease of McCartney and McCartney II, Paul McCartney’s first solo albums last year. Ram was rereleased earlier this year. Ram is the only album credited to Paul and Linda McCartney. Originally released in 1971, it is the last album recorded by Paul McCartney before the creation of Wings.

McCartney’s reissues cover full spectrum of emotion – USATODAY.com

Photography Love

I love coming across great photo blogs. In fact I’ve been toying with the idea of heading outside with a camera myself and posting the results. For the moment I’m content to highlight photographers such as Ziiplight. Below is just a small sample of the photography I’ve highlighted here at Ramblings of a Misguided Blonde. Much more to come.

The Paradox of Our Times | The Nahmias Cipher Report

There is not a single item in the above post I can refute. My issue is this: What am I personally supposed to do to help resolve the problems listed? I’d love to know. Increasingly I feel left with fewer options than ever. What angers me most is that there is no Plan B if the U.S. faces a series of serious crises all at once. Unfortunately I’ve travelled just enough in my life to fully understand how unique we are as a nation. I just hope it isn’t too late.

Where would Pop Art be without advertising and photography? Above are two endlessly fascinating blogs showcasing the best of pop culture over the last century or so. I love the idea of the everyday as art. I also love photography.

I hope you enjoy these blogs as much as I did.
