A half-century onward, Morrison Hotel Gallery looks back on the momentous time in music with 1971: The Golden Age of Rock & Roll, on view in New York City and Los Angeles through November 28, 2021.
From the year's most iconic album covers lensed by the likes of David Montgomery, Guy Webster and Ethan Russell to those photographers granted backstage access to the world tours and studio sessions that pushed the genre to its indulgent tipping point, 1971 celebrates the half-centennial of rock's golden year hits through the lens of time-honored iconography.
