A stunning book presents never-before-seen portraits of the giants of rock & roll—from Australia and overseas: photographed live and up close, at the peak of their powers.
Echoes Beyond the Night brings back the faces of rock music at its zenith.

As a child, Tony Blackwell dreamed of being a rockstar. Instead he found himself by the stage at unforgettable concerts, camera in hand, recording the music greats of the 70s and 80s. Always a keen photographer, Tony began a career in design, whilst moonlighting at rock gigs and concerts. He captured in close-up local and international artists; Bob Marley, Jimmy Barnes, Bob Geldof, Bryan Ferry, Peter Garrett and Joan Armatrading among dozens of big names. Now, in this inspired collection live portraits of the giants of rock & roll, are revealed in their prime.
Author Tony Blackwell and rockstar Bob Geldof, pictured together in 2024, 44 years on. Geldof was pictured as part the lead of The Boomtown Rats on the 11 May 1980. Plate 43, pages 94–95.
