Last night I photographed Billy Franks for the new book at his very special concert at the Union Chapel in London. I have seen him play live many times over the years, but never before backed by a gospel choir. It was an absolutely stunning show. Billy was one of the musicians who immediately agreed to coming on board the new book, and was right at the top of my wish list too. The former front man of the 1980s band The Faith Brothers is one of the good guys, a master craftsman in the singer / songwriting. This will be a special chapter for me to write.
