Der 23-jährige Musiker Lauren White entdeckte auf einem Flohmarkt in Saugus, California, bisher ungesehene Fotos der Rolling Stones. Diese wurden auf einer Reise gemacht, die die Band 1965 unternahm. Noch dazu sind diese Bilder außerordentlich gut gelungen. So einen Kauf macht man ganz sicher nur einmal im Leben.
Die Bilder werden jetzt in einer Galerie ausgestellt, außerdem kann man Prints davon käuflich erwerben.
In einem Interview auf Cool Hunting sagt White selber:
Ein KommentarI feel lucky. I really didn’t expect to find them at a flea market. Basically, a guy who runs one of the stands called me over because I “looked like I would like rock ‘n’ roll”– and he was right. I don’t know what was lost in translation, however. He obviously didn’t know what he had. To tell the truth, I didn’t either. I obviously knew it was the Stones, but it took about a week of looking them over to realize that this was really a very unique circumstance. After extensive research, I came to find that these are unpublished, never-before-seen photos of one of the most legendary bands in rock ‘n’ roll history. Not only that, they are beautifully composed, candid, raw and perfect in every way. They really convey a band innocent to their destiny.
