Former Allman Brothers Band “Tour Mystic” and world-renowned photographer Kirk West sits down to talk about some of his favorite music. He’s seen it all and has photographed of most of it. West’s career began in Chicago in the early ’60s, where he photographed Frank Zappa, Muddy Waters, and Junior Wells, to name a few. Later, he found himself on the outlaw country circuit, and some of his photos of Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, and George Jones (shirtless) captured some of the most iconic moments in country music history. Then there were the Tom Waits and Bob Marley years, the list goes on and on. Into the Mystic will take on a different form each episode. We might hear all blues, we might hear all country, we might hear obscure jazz. The common thread will be phenomenal stories from the life of one of our favorite photographers and owner of Gallery West at 447 Third Street in downtown Macon. Join “Tour Mystic” Kirk West every Wednesday at 7pm as he delves into the deeper side of the music.
