A decade later in San Francisco, James designed posters for the bands and shot photos of the people who made up the nascent punk rock scene. Contemporaneously, his photos were published in New York Rocker, Search & Destroy, and Slash, among others; more recently, his photos and posters were published in Hardcore California, Street Art, The Art of Rock, and Fucked Up and Photocopied. In October 2013, James participated in Punk: Chaos to Couture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, which included his photographs in the exhibition and catalog. His posters for the band Crime are considered classics, and are highly-prized collector's items.
In 1992, James published Punk '77: An inside look at the San Francisco rock 'n roll scene, a history of the early days of the San Francisco punk scene and is still in print. Along with James' photos, the book relied on interviews conducted circa 1990 with punk's musicians and scene-makers, many of whom are no longer living. To complete the historical record, those interviews are published here in complete form.visualizza meno
