TVC 683.1: Ed welcomes back David Arnoff, one of the best music photographers of his generation. David’s book Shot in the Dark is a collection of photos featuring Patti Smith, The Clash, Devo, Blondie, Lydia Lunch, The Cramps, The Ramones, David Johanson, Misfits, Nick Cave, Siouxsee and the Banshees, Joan Jett, Elvis Costello, and other music artists—all taken circa 1976 to 1985, and nearly of all which capture these performers in seminal moments in their careers. Shot in the Dark is available at DavidArnoff.com. Topics this segment include how the Beatles and other British bands helped shape the music scene of the 1960s, and how shows like Shindig and Hullabaloo helped influence David’s decision to become a photographer.
