For Patti fans everywhere. Middleagedad brought this back from New York for me as a present and it is brilliant. Pictures of Patti looking her sonically cool self with her unique sense of style. She has an image presence that you just can’t take you eyes off. Well I can’t anyway. Amazing shots of a young Sam Shepard, who she dated for a while and of course Robert Maplethorpe. Judy Linn was part of Patti’s gang back in the early days, so the images are genuinely life as they lived it.
