HENRY DILTZ #1

Robert W. Morgan
1966 
Unpublished KHJ promotional photo.

I have some of the greatest friends one could wish for. None cooler than Henry Diltz. The best friends are forever young. We all met way back, when tomorrow was never in doubt. Life was a giggle. 

Today, Henry is recognized as one of the top rock photographers of all time. When we romped and rolled, back in our day, he was Tad and I was Ronny, now names only used by our closest friends.  I never stopped calling the man in the sombrero "Bob." 

One of earliest gigs, as Henry morphed from talented but starving photographer, was to shoot photos for KHJ, like Boss 30 covers, etc.

The Boss Jocks met up with Henry and ran around Hollywood doing foolish things while wearing silly costumes for his camera. The KHJ song sheets were free, passed out at record shops. In 2008, the rarest of them, sell for high prices on eBay. But since his days cruisin' Boss Angeles with the boys, Henry's fees and reputuation have risen.  He's photographed virtually everyone who was, or is, anyone. "Yeah, another Jacobs hype," you say?Well, click on the HENRY DILTZ link to the right, check it out, and get back to me.
