Iconic Images by Barry Feinstein
Bob Dylan
"Aust Ferry"
England 1966
"11th of May, waiting at the Aust Ferry Terminal near Bristol to go to Cardiff in Wales. They chose this shot for the cover of Scorsese’s No Direction Home CD and DVD. It’s one that Bob likes as it told it all. It has depth, he looked cool. I guess he felt it represented the moment to him. Just waiting for the ferry and it turned out to be a good picture."

Aretha Franklin
“Amazing Grace”
Los Angeles, California, 1972
Feinstein photographed Franklin during her legendary performance at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles. The recordings made there, in which Franklin was accompanied by the Reverend James Cleveland and the Southern California Community Choir, were released on the album Amazing Grace in 1972. Amazing Grace won a GRAMMY for Best Soul Gospel Performance, and remains not only Franklin’s bestselling album but the bestselling live gospel record of all time.
Steve McQueen
“Burnout”
San Francisco, California, 1968
This photo was taken during the filming of the Movie "Bullitt.” Photographer Barry Feinstein was a good friend of McQueen's and was hired as his personal set photographer for the film. The car chases and camera work on this film revolutionized the industry.
Bob Dylan
"Fans in Limo"
Edinburgh, Scotland, 1966
Barry Feinstein was the official photographer for several of Dylan's tours and, as a result, the two spent a great deal of time together, developing a close bond. Dylan has a reputation in the music world for being a very private person, but he trusted Feinstein and was comfortable in front of his camera. Here, we get a glimpse into the fishbowl-like experience of Dylan's fame, as he tries to keep his cool as fans literally press their faces up against the window.
Tina Turner
Ike and Tina Onstage
San Carlos, California, 1971
The Turners and their band performed two shows each night, on August 27 and 28, 1971, at the Circle Star Theater, and Barry Feinstein was there. Allowed access to Tina’s dressing room, where he photographed her in curlers, laughing, he then turned his lens on her electrifying stage performance. Capturing her energy, charisma, and constant motion was no small feat, even for him: but Feinstein did it.
“Pearl”
Janis Joplin
Hollywood, California, 1970
On October 3, 1970, Janis Joplin sat down on a Victorian love seat with a drink and a cigarette in Barry Feinstein’s studio. Feinstein took dozens of shots of Joplin as she laughed, lounged, reflected, and even seemed to be dozing in a few. This image became the cover of her posthumous and most celebrated album Pearl (1971). Joplin died the day after this photo session.
George Harrison
“All Things Must Pass”
Barry Feinstein's cover shot for George Harrison's 1970 album, "All Things Must Pass". Because legendary photographer Barry Feinstein was there when a truckload of gnomes were returned to George Harrison's estate, Feinstein found a fortuitous moment which became the album cover for All Things Must Pass.
Henley-On-Thames, England, 1970
“Le Mans Reflection”
Steve McQueen
This photograph of Steve McQueen was taken at the racetrack in France, during the filming of "Le Mans". The way the light reflects off the oil can exemplifies both Barry's artist eye for lighting, and his instinctual talent to catch the exact right moment.
Le Mans, France, 1970
