I was honored to accomplish the design and production of Steve Schneider’s new book, “The First Three Songs”. I was of course already familiar with a number of Steve's classic images such as Jerry looking straight at you from Santa Barbara ’78 and New Years at Winterland, and many others. But I was amazed at the breadth of his work, from early ‘70s Neil Young to grunge heros, Nirvana, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam to David Bowie and the Rolling Stones. His images of Kurt Cobain and Chris Cornell are especially compelling. We have five decades of concert photography for you to enjoy. Thank you Steve! —Bob Minkin
Steve’s work embodies a really nice and special slice of Pop Culture - Rock & Roll history. —Jay Blakesberg
