<p>This Rolling Stones tour was photographed/documented by Philip Kamim, a famous music photographer from Toronto, Canada (b.1955). Unlike most of his peers, Kamin kept most of his collection from the public and copyrighted the images. Some of these he provided to the stars he toured with, others went into 35 music titles his publishing company produced. But thousands of amazing rock and roll images stayed archived in his personal collection." Philip Kamin picked up a camera for the first time in July 1978. A chance encounter with Phil Collins led him to instantly become tour photographer for Genesis. His work met with immediate success, spreading his name throughout the United Kingdom's rock'n'roll circuit. What set Philip Kamin's work apart from many industry photographers was exclusivity: he never sold his photographs to newspapers, magazines or photo agencies. Kamin built his solid reputation by touring and selling his work directly to the bands he photographed, the bands' managers, their public relations firms, record companies or merchandisers. Kamin has "published over 90 books, including 40 in music, plus novels, non-fiction, trade paperbacks and coffee table books in a variety of subjects. In addition to Genesis, Kamin has worked with The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney &amp; Wings, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, YES, The Clash, AC/DC, Rush, King Crimson, Bill Bruford, Van Halen, Roxy Music, Black Sabbath, The Cars and John Belushi/Dan Ackroyd, just to name a few. Kamin did his last shoot in May 1985 for Madonna. Philip's work received such critical acclaim that he formed a publishing company in 1982, producing full-color 128 page books documenting the tours of many of the above-mentioned groups. Philip Kamin's work has appeared on record album covers, earning him gold record awards.</p>
