Noteworthy Photography

  • Burning Flags Press
    The website of Glen E. Friedman. Renowned for both his work with musicians like Fugazi, Minor Threat, Public Enemy, the Beastie Boys, Slayer (and many, many more) as well as his groundbreaking documentation of the burgeoning skateboard phenomenon in the late `70's, Glen has been privvy to (and has summarily captured on film) some of the coolest stuff ever. He's also an incredibly insightful and nice guy to boot.
  • SoHo Blues - Photography by Allan Tannenbaum
    Allan Tannenbaum is a local photographer who has been everywhere and shot everything, from members of Blondie hanging out at the Mudd Club through the collapsing towers of the World Trade Center on September 11th. You could spend hours on this site, and I have.
  • Robert Otter Photographs
    Amazing vintage photographs of New York City, specifically my own neighborhood, Greenwich Village.
  • oboylephoto
    Just some intensely cool photographs of abandoned places.
  • Rikki Ercoli's Legends of Punk
    Much like Glen E. Friedman (see above), Rikki Ercoli has managed to catch some amazing bands in their manic element.
  • Lost & Found Film
    A fascinating website devoted to undeveloped film found in vintage camers. A curious mixture of interesting and spooky.
  • Pinhole Photography by Veronica Saddler
    NYC landmarks shot through a pinhole lens. Neat-o.
  • Eugene Merinov
    Compelling shots of Punk, Post-Punk and New Wave band performing live in various long-lost venues in a pre-sanitized New York City. Great stuff!
  • Edward Colver

The Downtown Dozen Addendum

Not that anyone noticed, asked or cared about the first batch, but here are a few more great NYC-entric music vids from eons past. Which ones am I missing? Speak up!

Beastie Boys - "Holy Snappers"

Biohazard - "Punishment"

Belfegore - "All That I Wanted"

Missing Foundation - "Burn Trees"

H20 - "What Happened?"

Little Steve & the Disciples of Soul - "Forever"

The Cult - "Edie (Ciao Baby)"

Freedy Johnston - "Bad Reputation"

 

There are also a couple I'd love to add but cannot find, namely "Green Light" by Firewater (rife with footage of mid-90's Tribeca) and "Off the A-List" by Surgery, featuring a slew of great Manhattan locales.

Any others?

This is turning into hours of don't-blink-or-you'll-miss-it entertainment. I want to pester location detective Bob Egan about so many things.
Thank you!
