A fascinating look back in time and of one man's quest to obtain recognition for his iconic photograph. His journey is intriguing. A throughly enjoyable read.

Robert Davidson is best known for his iconic picture of Frank Zappa on the toilet. His recounting of that story is an eye opener that undoes the many versions that have circulated in Zappa fan circles. Yet his adventures and tales in 'I Shot Frank Zappa' touch on many other artists, and even politicians from the era. Learning the art of photography as he went, initially under the influence of Emile Cadoo, the author moves between London, Paris and New York where, at every turn, he seems to stumble into yet another eye watering adventure. A thoroughly good read with lots of previously unpublished photographs. Davidson lived the 'sex, drugs and rock and roll life' with abandon and his writing style takes no hostages.
