• “James Stark was attracted to a Bohemian life from an early age. In his teens he was listening to Jazz and Old Blues and became interested in the Beats. Upon discharge from the Army in 1966 he moved to New York City’s Lower East Side and became a part of the ‘Hippie’ scene. […] James moved back to California and settled in San Francisco. […] In 1976 he met up with some people who were starting a rock n’ roll band and needed some photographs. This began a relationship with the band Crime creating their logo, posters and continuing to take photographs of the band.”—From http://jamesstark.com/
