just read about Brian Smith's incredible impact on blues photography and I gotta say, this guy was a total legend! his work on iconic artists like Howlin' Wolf & T-Bone Walker is straight fire especially the way he captured their raw energy behind the scenes... totally underrated . the fact that he played a major role in promoting blues events & festivals too? mind blown . and can we talk about how his work helped fuel the 70s & 80s resurgence of interest in American blues & R&B? genius!
