Edgar Winter

Hi!

Wow, almost a month without a post huh? I kinda suck. It's been...busy to say the least. So, I am aiming for a post a week, what's your favorite day of the week? We'll make that post day. If I had to pick I would automatically say Friday, but those don't mean so much when you work all the time. We'll still shoot for Friday and I will try to get you a few extra this week to make up for the false start. I mean well. I really do.

I lost my photo-shop over the weekend, I have a copy, just have to re-install, but till then I am just going to go ahead an add the photos that have already appeared on my other blog, even though they don't have the Jim Cassatta approved watermark ;).

Below! Behold the great Edgar Winter! Most likely playing his famous and amazing Frankenstein! I have no back story on this one yet, but as Dad fill in the details I will update. I believe this is from a show at the San Diego Sports Arena August 16, 1974.

This whole thing is a work in progress, posts will be updated as needed when input from dad is received. Sometimes that can take awhile. Thank you for your patience and interest you guys rock!

The photo that started it all

Hello and welcome to Jim Cassatta, Imagemaker!


Included will be my father's personal history, history as a photographer, video clips of him talking about his photos, and rambles about the times he spent with such greats as Iggy Pop, Mick Jagger, Ray Manzarek, Alice Cooper, Rodney Bingenheimer, Edger Winter, Bob Hite, Gene Simmons, and many more!

The below photograph was taken backstage at the Roxy on Sunset sometime in early 1977. Dad had chased Iggy there after not seeing him for well over a year while he was in Berlin to record The Idiot with David Bowie.




This photo, along with all the ones to come, is available for purchase. Printed on high quality paper, black and white, 8 x 10 for $25.00. For an additional $25.00 dad will sign and personalize your photo in silver paint pen or black sharpie, your choice.
