Would rock stars be as iconic if not for the photographs and album and magazine covers that illuminated their fame? This fascinating six-part history of rock photography looks at these images through the eyes of the photographers themselves, as well as musicians including Ziggy Marley, Alice Cooper, Julian Lennon, Metallica’s Lars Ulrich and more. The opening episode, “On Camera,” explores how a frozen moment in time can define a musician’s persona for posterity.
