Many congratulations Bill on your 90th birthday!

I have so many fond memories of the over 60 years I have known you, from a memorable visit to the Eastman Kodak Museum back in 1965, a smouldering hotel room in New York, ghastly dressing rooms across America, a cold morning on Primrose Hill, numerous nights in recording studios as well as photographic exhibitions in various places.

Great times and looking forward to a few more. Have a wonderful celebration!

*Stoned Sundays*

Back in September 1966 when I photographed Brian in his mad bohemian flat in South Kensington, I shot quite a lot of colour transparencies, but all of them except for two frames were lost at the time.

A few years ago, I was contacted by an old friend at a picture agency who announced that a load of my Stones images had turned up and did I want them back – this portrait of Brian on his “Minstrel’s Gallery” was one of them.

*Stoned Sundays*

In late 1966 I was covering the sessions at Olympic Studios that would become Between the Buttons.

I was working on my home-made filter of glass, black card and Vaseline trying to isolate the band from the confusion of the recording studio around them. It was a variation of this filter that I used to make the cover image on Primrose Hill early one morning after an all-nighter in the studio.

A rarely seen portrait of Marianne taken during my last session with her in Dublin in 1998. I was very happy with many of the shots from this session but sadly her manager at the time took against the whole shoot and the images were buried for many years.

Mankowitz for Rolling Stone Magazine

Celebrating 60 years since Jimi Hendrix landed in London, Rolling Stone France dedicates its October cover to Jimi Hendrix, the guitarist who forever changed the history of rock, featuring Gered Mankowitz’ unique Ink Icon silkscreen print collaboration with David Costa.

The October 2026 issue tells of 1000 days that changed the face of rock forever. Rediscover Hendrix, his story, his sound and the immense legacy of the musician in this essential edition.

From his first steps in Swinging London to his meteoric rise, this issue traces the exceptional trajectory of a musician possessed by a permanent quest: to push the limits of guitar, sound and studio. In less than four years Hendrix produced revolutionary work and become an absolute icon.

The cover image is available as a silkscreen artist proof (A/P) print from Iconic Images Gallery.

Jimi Hendrix “Purple & Gold” - Limited Edition Silkscreen Print in UK

In 1991 Gered teamed up with David Costa to form Ink Icon Ltd. Together, they produced a series of limited-edition silkscreen prints based on his archive. The first subject in this major project was Jimi Hendrix, and the result was so successful that it was chosen as the flagship image for the worldwide Jimi Hendrix Exhibition, and as the cover for the The Ultimate Experience CD box-set, which sold over 2 million copies.

*Stoned Sundays*

When I photographed Mick for my 1966 series of the Stones at home, he was in the middle of moving flats and I photographed him in both places.

This shot is of him at the front door of the flat he was leaving, which was in a mews near Baker Street in Central London. The little dog belonged, I believe, to his girlfriend the lovely Chrissie Shrimpton. I'm not sure who owned the antique rocking horse you can glimpse in the window.

Generation X

I shot three sessions with Generation X in 1978.

I believe these were taken in February of that year, at the studio in Great Windmill Street in London’s Soho, to promote the single Ready Steady Go which was a Top 40 hit for them.

I love that Billy has a Rock Against Racism sticker on his hip.
