Brian Foskett, a legendary creator capturing the essence of music through his lens. In 1967, he immortalized Buddy Rich in London, showcasing the drummer's unparalleled talent and energy on stage. Moving forward to 1994 at Ronnie Scotts, Brian O'Connor's artistry came alive under Foskett's camera, painting a vivid picture of Ronnie Scott himself. In 1960, Foskett turned his lens towards Paul Chambers, freezing the bassist's passion and skill in time. The year 1968 brought Elvin Jones into focus as Foskett captured the drummer's intensity and rhythm that echoed through every beat. Joe Morello found himself in London during that same year, where Foskett seized the opportunity to capture his brilliance behind the drums. And it was in 1989 when Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. , and Liza Minnelli graced Royal Albert Hall with their presence - an unforgettable moment documented by an unknown creator. B. B. King took center stage at Mstricht Jazz Festival in the Netherlands in 1991; Brian Foskett ensured every note from King's guitar resonated through his photographs. Queen Elizabeth Hall became Jack DeJohnette's playground in London during 1989 - a performance forever etched into memory by Foskett. The Miles Davis Quintet transported audiences back to jazz history with their mesmerizing soundscapes; Brian Foskett had front-row access to this magical experience in 1960. Finally, Elvin Jones returned once more with his Jazz Machine at Jazz Bakery in Los Angeles during 1997 - another chapter added to Foskett's visual anthology. And lastly but not leastly (if that is even a word), Maynard Ferguson took flight on stage in the year 2000 – yet again captured flawlessly by Brian "the maestro" Foskett.
