It’s all happening

A young man travels the world, getting backstage access to concerts, touring with the bands, and living the rock star life, without having to perform in front of the crowds night after night. No, this isn’t a movie review of Almost Famous. This is the narration of Neal Preston’s real life for the past 47 years. While not hired by Rolling Stone to write an exposé on Stillwater, Preston has worked for the magazine, along with Newsweek, Time, and People, to photograph the likes of such musicians as Led Zeppelin, The Who, Queen, The Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, and Madonna. Now, in collaboration with Reel Art Press, Preston’s 300-photograph memoir, Neal Preston: Exhilarated and Exhausted, is being released. With unrestricted access to his archive and a foreword by Cameron Crowe, this book is sure to be a real page-turner…
