Rory Gallagher's Facebook page and I have been talking lately and they have featured some of my photographs.
Today, we look back at both of Rory's shows that I covered.
October 20, 1971 at the Milwaukee Arena with Frank Zappa and Fleetwood Mac was the first show and the second one was on
November 8, 1972 at The East Village, a local club here in Milwaukee.
Enjoy looking back at Rory. All photographs are available to purchase as limited edition archival prints.
Thanks,

This past week we lost a couple of good rock people.
Johnny Winter and JC Hartsfield left us for the big great rock band forming in heaven.
JC Hartsfield was a good friend of mine for many years when the band Heartsfield was playing a lot in the 1970's and 80's here in the midwest.
Heartsfield, was a country rock band. If you never heard them, please do yourself a favor and look them up.
The attached photos cover many years in the 1980's and it seems a few of the photos are of a birthday party for JC. It looks like the good old shaving cream pie in the face.
I have a lot of Heartsfield photos and more will be coming soon but I had to scan a few today because of JC's passing.
Miss you JC, we had some good times together.
Thanks for the memories JC.

Last weeks blog, was on the Babe Ruth Band at Summerfest on June 28th, 2014.
After looking at all the photos that I took, I had to share some more with you. So, enjoy 12 more images of a very fun night and let's hope they come back soon to do it all again!
I didn't mention that the Babe Ruth song, "The Mexican", has been sampled and enjoyed by the break dancing community. One of my photos last week, showed one of the break dancers on stage with Alan Shacklock's son playing DJ behind him. Very cool stuff!
Have a great week and please join my Facebook page Rich Zimmermann Photography if you haven't already.
Thanks,
