Photographing the legend's of rock n' roll's golden era of the late 1960's and early 1970's, Tom Gundelfinger O'Neal had unrivalled access to some of the icons of popular music.



Showcasing a selection of his striking work at the National Press Club in Washington this month, O'Neal's portraits of Mick Jagger, Jim Morrison, B.B King and Janis Joplin hark back to an era when rock music was still considered counter-culture.



Witness to Hendrix's famous guitar burning at the legendary Monterey music festival of 1967 and the Rolling Stones notoriously debauched 1972 tour of North America, O'Neal also managed to capture more reflective artists such as Joni Mitchell and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.

I am a huge fan of this era. Do you like the music from this era?
 
I most definitely do. Love the Doors, Rolling Stones and the King. But I only know like one song by Janis Joplin.
