On this episode of The Adventures of Pipeman, Pipeman interviews legendary rock photographer, Gene Ambo, to discuss his new book that everyone should be stoked to get their hands on! Pipeman and Gene discuss how it came about that he would write a book and why he decided to write the book now. Gene gives us an insight into his book and how there’s no fluff or stories it’s simply a time-capsule book with 350 pages of pictures and 150 bands, designed to showcase to everyone who wasn’t at the live shows how awesome they were. Gene speaks about his favourite picture he’s ever taken and how it is a full stage shot of Metallica, right as they’re moving into encores, and they had a smoke machine on. Gene talks about how he only had 10 frames of film and that particular shot was one of his last frames, so he was super to lucky to get it and it has turned out to be his favourite shot and one he’s known best for.

ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
Gene Ambo is a world renowned, Chicago-based photographer whose career began in 1983 at Chicago’s legendary Metro music club where he began shooting bands he enjoyed with his father’s camera. He is celebrated for his stunning images of legendary, underground and emerging bands and musicians, including Metallica, Mötorhead, Madonna, Prince, Slayer and Broken Hope. HEAVY METRO is Gene’s first-ever photo book. As Gene says, “I was just lucky to be at the Metro in the beginning and to have met people who have really helped me out throughout my life, and I look at this book like I’m documenting time. ‘Access All Eras,’ like the book title says. Metro is my home base…for so many years. Between the Metro and Smart Bar, I have spent a lot of time there—many days AND nights. Literally!”
