Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Between Midnight and Day: The Last Unpublished Blues Archive celebrates the rich heritage of one of America's greatest cultural legacies, the blues. Dick Waterman has been representing and photographing blues artists for over fifty years and in Between Midnight and Day, he collects these rare images, many previously unseen, and illuminates them with his own first-hand commentary offering his unique perspective as an agent, representative, photographer, and friend to some of the most influential figures in American music. Waterman includes personal recollections and 120 color photographs of blues legends like Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, Lightnin' Hopkins, Chuck Berry, Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, Son House, "Mississippi" John Hurt, Skip James, Janis Joplin, B.B. King, Fred McDowell, Bonnie Raitt, Otis Rush, Roosevelt Sykes, Big Mama Thornton, Sippie Wallace, Muddy Waters, Junior Wells, Bukka White, and Howlin' Wolf. Contributors include critically acclaimed music biographer Peter Guralnick, Grammy award-winning musician Bonnie Raitt, and author Chris Murray. Review:"The people are the focal points of Between Midnight and Day. Their stories, told vividly in words and pictures, are stories of friendship, in all its intimacy and profound complexity. These are the stories of great artists, great and not-so-great people, and the extraordinary manager, photographer and human being who knew them well." Andy Whitman, Paste magazine Review:"Assembled for this beautifully designed and printed book, the pictures are stunning, the accompanying anecdotes personal and revealing — and often quite poignant. The blues wasn't just the music but, for too many musicians, a condition as well." Richard Harrington, The Washington Post Review:"Spend time with the 120 b&w photos; they reveal the complex, pressing emotions that drove the music." Frank-John Hadley, Downbeat Magazine Synopsis:Between Midnight and Day will be released to coincide with the world premier of the six-part documentary Speakin' of the Blues, produced by Martin Scorsese. Vanity Fair will publish an illustrated profile of Dick Waterman in its September 2003 issue. Govinda Gallery in Washington, D.C., will mount exhibition and gallery tour of Waterman's photographs to coincide with publications. Synopsis:This volume collects rare photographs and personal recollections from one of the most important men in blues music.
