Kevin ★★★★★

The black-and-white print is genuinely sharp for a 1969 festival shot, you can make out every detail of his hands on the Strat. Joel Axe caught a really loose, unposed moment here.

Ellie ★★★★★

The grain and contrast in this print feel like they’re straight out of 1969—you can almost hear the feedback through the image. Joel Axe caught him mid-solo with that intense focus, and it’s framed perfectly as the centerpiece of my music room. Could stare at this for hours.

Grace ★★★★☆

Hangs above my turntable now and the black-and-white shot really captures how intense he looks mid-solo. Only thing is the print arrived with a faint crease in one corner, but once framed it's barely noticeable.
