If you want to know just how amazing the 80's was, a book from a famed rock and roll photographer is shedding light on the epic decade that included the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Freddie Mercury and Bette Midler.
That sure is true about the decade of the 1980's.
"I think that I was definitely a person who was guilty of giving the 80's a bad rap until I worked on this book," photographer Lynn Goldsmith said. Goldsmith's new book 'Music in the 80's,' made her revise that opinion because she says the diversity that was going on in that decade was so powerful."What you see is how many different kinds of music really had strong popularity," Goldsmith said."Prior to MTV, often times an artist was not considered authentic if they had hair, make-up, and styling. And, MTV really changed that," Goldsmith said.
It was an era defined by big hair and a style that can only be called larger than life, which lent itself to a visual stylist like Goldsmith, who has been working behind the camera since she was 12 years old.Artists like Smith pose for Goldsmith again and again. They are photo shoots that become a collaboration between two artists.Copyright © 2022 WABC-TV. All Rights Reserved.
