David was one of the best rock photographers in the business in the 60's in the UK. He took pictures of every major pop and rock act in the country. And everyone who met him loved him.
We were all part of a divine madness in the UK in the 60's in the music business and I met some crazy people through David. I was thinking about David and Louise as I was writing about that period of my life and fortunately through the power of Google was able to track down first Louise and the David.
I am so glad that a few weeks ago I talked on the phone to David - after us losing contact with each other for almost twenty years. It was great to hear his voice and to reminisce about some of the crazy times we had together.
Hearing of David's passing made me realize very pointedly how important it is to spend your available time on this planet with people that you care about, doing things that are worth while and that contribute positively to your fellow man. David did a lot of that during his life. After a career in rock photography, David went into producing documentaries (with Louise). They won a swag of awards for their work. They never made any money, but they truly pursued causes that they thought were just. And they made a difference.
David you will be missed!
Here is a picture David took of Alexis Korner.
