Great to see that Jill Furmanovsky's and Sheila Rock's work being celebrated in this exhibition. Jill was the photographer who accompanied me on my very first interview assignment for Just Seventeen magazine in 1983 – Curt Smith of Tears for Fears. She was already a well-known rock photographer, but so modest and so reassuring, she really put my at my ease.
