Pop is a comprehensive exploration of the music photography of Brian Griffin shot for album covers, single sleeves, posters and press. The pages of this book are illustrated with over 160 record covers from more than 100 bands and musicians, many previously unpublished, including Ian Dury, The Clash, Depeche Mode, Echo and the Bunnymen, Iggy Pop, Kate Bush, The Specials and Elvis Costello. Griffin first began photographing the music world for Stiff Records in the late 1970s and soon became the predominant visual chronicler of New Wave, Post-Punk and the New Romantics. Working from his studio in Rotherhithe, often on low budgets and before the age of photo-editing software, Griffin's technical naivety resulted in major visual invention; how these photographs were executed and the techniques employed or invented is explained in a Q&A between Griffin and the author Terry Rawlings. Another section contains portraits of important figures in the music industry such as the Beatles producer George Martin, Brian Eno, John Peel and Daniel Miller, alongside an essay by Paul Gorman on Griffin's relationship with the graphic artist Barney Bubbles.
