All of these were shot for a couple of dollars. But they didn’t really have any outlets for them in those days. No one was offering me any money. I wanted to do them and David wanted me to do them, so I just did them. But it was a lot of years before they started to show up. Obviously, David started to pop up here and there on MTV. But nowadays, they are in museums all over the world, including the MOMA. They were inducted a few years ago, along with David’s other videos as part of their permanent collection.

“I loved the rockers, the power they projected onstage, their unpredictable nature, the freedom they fomented. And I was game for just about anything then. I was not interested in a career. I wanted adventures.”
“A soul is a little more difficult to get out. People’s souls are very mysterious — but the aura is not. I want that certain kind of mystical energy.”

“Freddie Mercury was one of my favorite human beings… He was a gem of a man, as gracious as any I’ve known.”
“I was tripping on LSD with a young lady. I picked up a friend’s camera and loved the added intensity and explosions it made as I clicked.”
