Dan Fogelberg and Tim Weisberg, having fun making music, in Madison, Wisconsin in 1977.

January 12, 1976

Dan Fogelberg in 1976 was an Arista Records artist that I had the pleasure of working with a little bit.

He was one of the nicest guys I ever met and every woman I know loved him! He had it all working for him at the time.

These photos are of a time when he was more of a rock star. The work he did with Tim Weisberg was about to happen and would change his style a bit.

Next week I will do Fogelberg/Weisberg 1977, so be sure to check that upcoming blog post.

Enjoy a little look into Dan when he performed in Milwaukee in 1976. Anyone remember where?

Stay warm everyone!

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann

Happy New Year to everyone! Hope you all had a nice Christmas and New Years with family and friends.

This week's blog features my friend Ed Sison who was the drummer for the band Truc, and of course my favorite local band The Ox.

My photos here are of Truc at Summerfest in 1972 on the main stage opening up the show for Jerry Lee Lewis.

Enjoy, and I hope you got one of my WMSE/Rich Zimmermann 2015 calendars! If not, message me and we can take care of that.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann

This is our last blog of the year and I have to wish Happy Birthday to my racing friend Tony Kanaan! TK was born on December 31, 1974!! Puppy!

Just a simple blog today to wish TK the best birthday ever on New Years Eve and to wish him a safe and successful 2015.

Here is a little look back at TK in the year 2000 and 2014 in Milwaukee's Indy car races.

I also want to thank all of you for the business you have given me and Happy New Year everyone! My wish to you all for the New Year is much success in whatever you do!

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann

This week we take a break from the rock' n roll and Indy car photography to celebrate the holidays.

Enjoy a few photos of Winter and the snow.  I wish we had snow here in Wisconsin for a white Christmas this year. These pictures were taken a few years ago. It was on a Sunday morning before the sun came out and then all of the ice crystals melted.  It was beautiful while it lasted.

The deer photo (is that Rudolf?) was taken yesterday when he walked through our backyard.  Interesting rack on his head, isn't it?

In case you haven't seen it or heard about it, the WMSE calendar is out and it is awesome! All the photography in it is mine! I have it for sale for $20.00 and it features photos of David Bowie, Frank Zappa, Babe Ruth, Leo Kottke and more.  It has more than 12 gallery quality prints for only $20.00!

Have a nice holiday week and don't eat to much like I will!

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann
