Manic Street Preachers

September 1990    Sly St Studio, London E1

From The Manics first press photo session commissioned by their then manager, the late, great Phillip Hall, to whom I literally owe my career.

It was Philip who, when I answered a tiny back page ad in Time Out for Stiff Records, looking for photographers, gave me my first jobs and nurtured me through my ealry years.

Philip was sadly taken by cancer in 1993 but his legacy lives on with us and in my heart forever x
