Overview
In 1965, as a twenty-five-year-old photographer, Bent Rej was assigned by a Danish newspaper to cover The Rolling Stones’ European tour. Rej developed an immediate rapport with the burgeoning British Invasion band, especially with Brian Jones, who became a close friend. As part of the Stones’ entourage, he was soon swept into the bustling celebrity underworld of the late ’60s London.
There, he met and photographed the band’s notable peers, gaining unfettered access to the young musicians of the day who would go on to become legends. With a camera always on hand, Rej took some of the most iconic, behind-the-scenes shots of the most influential rock musicians of the era, including:
- Mick Jagger
- Keith Richards
- John Lennon
- Paul McCartney
- Roger Daltrey
- Pete Townshend
- Ray Davies
- And many more.
