It is with great sadness to hear that Chris Steele-Perkins, Magnum photographer, friend, author, and husband to Miyako, has recently passed away. We will not forget his kindness, friendship and humour. The cover for 'England, My England' perfectly captured his wonderful humour!

The author and comedian Marc Burrows, with the picture cutting off just above his eyebrows. His eyes, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, are peaking over the cover of the 12" LP of 'The Christmas Album', the Christmas compilation from 1985, a slightly battered record sleeve with pictures of WHAM! Paul McCartney, Roy Wood, Queen and Band Aid on it. He's holding it close. Behind him is a book case, we can just make out rock biographies and books about the charts.
New book announcement! I'm currently working on my DREAM PROJECT, a book provisionally called 'TINSEL & FIRE: The Rise and Fall of the Christmas Number One', out hopefully this time next year through the brilliant @mcnidderandgrace.bsky.social
