DESCRIPTION:
Highly recommended, especially if you arrived on the scene years later Scientist_B This book is a huge tome of photos from the 80's and early 90's chronicling Punk, Skating, and Hip Hop for those of us who wish they could have been there but couldn't for lack of years. Being 5 years old at the time I couldn't have caught Minor Threat at CBGB or Run DMC at the Palladium but there are plenty of photos from that time and place and many others in this book. Having plenty of friends who feel the same way I expect this book will see some serious use from guests leafing through it.The construction and print quality are good. Photos fill e. "Really a great book. I've flipped through several times and have" according to John R.. Really a great book. I've flipped through several times and have enjoyed every page. Its a bit ironic to see the anarchistic musical heroes of my younger days on my coffee table, but we're all grown up now and that's the way it goes sometimes. A good read and brings back a lot of memories.. Brian Tane said MY RULES - The definitive work of Glen E. Friedman. This is a masterwork. Not only the photos - many seen before, but also many new ones - but the sequencing, written contributions from artists, and packaging make this an absolute must-have for any fan of Glen E. Friedman. If you're interested in seeing or learning about the most monumental forces in the history of punk, hardcore, skating and rap, this is the quintessential photography collection. I could not put the book down once I started flipping through and look forward to looking at, and reading in more detail for years to come. Kudos to Glen E.

A real masterpiece! It was a very pleasant—and unexpected—surprise indeed. The original My Rules photo zine came out in 1982, and this new books collects all the photos I love (skateboarding, hip-hop, punk rock, Public Enemy wearing Minor Threat shirts). his in-your-face imagery spotlights the unmistakable vitality inherent across all three subcultures, making him a veritable Weegee of the early skate, punk and hip hop scenes.

Glen E. A remarkable chronicle and a primer about the origins of radical street cultures, My Rules is also a statement of artistic inspiration for those influenced by these countercultures.. Designed in association with celebrated street and graphic artist Shepard Fairey, this monograph captures the most important and influential underground heroes of skateboarding, punk, and hip-hop cultures. My Rules is an unprecedented window into the three most significant countercultures of the last quarter of the twentieth century, and Friedman’s photographs define those important movements that he helped shape. The definitive monograph of Glen E. Friedman, a pioneer of skate, punk, and hip-hop photography, including much never-before-published work.
