Joseph Szabo: Rolling Stones Fans
July 4th, 1978. A stadium full of denim, sweat, eyeliner, and anticipation.

Before the lights. Before the first chord. There were the fans.

In Rolling Stones Fans, legendary photographer Joseph Szabo turns his lens not on the stage, but on the crowd—the teenage dreamers, rebels, and rock ’n’ roll disciples who descended on Long Island’s JFK Stadium for one explosive night of the Stones’ Some Girls tour. The result is a raw, tender, and wildly stylish portrait of youth in its most electric state.

Shot with the same quiet intensity that made Szabo’s Teenage and Almost Grown cult classics, this book is a time capsule of American subculture at full volume. The hair, the cigarettes, the stares—it’s all here, and it’s glorious.

At Canyon Creative Studio, we’re drawn to the moments that hum beneath the spectacle. Rolling Stones Fans captures that energy—the ecstatic waiting, the fashion-as-armor, the identity-in-formation. It's less about Mick and Keith, and more about us.
