Bruce MacCallum recalls photographing Janis Joplin:
Janis Joplin at Atlanta Pop. Having met and shot Janis at a few earlier concerts, it was the first time I saw her so relaxed and happy. I was with my editor Cyn Zarco and friend Jordon. Janis was sitting on the steps of her camper talking with Al Kooper. We all began talking and I asked if we could shoot them together. That led to a few single shots of Janis. She was happy and excited about the groups that were going to be performing. We hung out ‘till she had to go to a rehearsal or a sound check.
On March 20th, MacCallum has a show opening at The Half King in New York of his photographs of rock icons. (read more here)

Here, a series of stunning unpublished shots of the one and only Marilyn, as well as some possible explanations why they never made it into print.
