Jim Herrington is one of the most accomplished music photographers of our time and the guy behind iconic shots of Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard and other legends of country, blues and rock & roll. He\u2019s been a longtime contributor to the Fretboard Journal; you may remember\xa0the incredible short story and photograph he contributed on tracking down Mickey Baker in rural France.
Herrington has his first coffee table book out and, no, it\u2019s not on music heroes. The Climbers is a photo-laden book that features unforgettable portraits of the icons of the climbing/mountaineering world. On this week\u2019s Fretboard Journal Podcast, we talk to Herrington about his start in photography, his techniques for getting these incredible shots of artists and athletes and his plans for another book based on music. It\u2019s an enlightening and fun chat with one of our favorite contributors.\xa0
