Summary

On today's episode of LET THERE BE TALK my guest is the great Bay Area Rock n Roll Photographer Jay Blakesberg.

You may know Jay from his incredible Grateful Dead photos but what you may not know is Jay shot a lot of the early Alternative Rock Scene at the famous IBeam nightclub back in the day in San Francisco.

Jay also has tons of great Rock Photography books out including one that features one of my favorite bands The Mother Hips.
