This is a replay of my converstion with my friend Baron Wolman who passed away Monday at the age of 83.

This man was hands down my favorite photographer and his stories and life should be celebrated.

Baron was the frist photographer for Rolling Stone Magazine, He shot Woodstock and some of the greatest Day On The Green Photos ever.

I met Baron years and years ago after searching out who shot all the killer Day On The Green Photos.

Baron was a full on legend who took some of the best early photos for Rolling Stone magazine. Baron was Rolling Stone magazine’s first house photographer

His Woodstock photos and stories are next level. I sat down with him originally for an episode of Let There Be Talk August 28th 2016 #282 and was blown away by all his amazing rock stories.
