Bainbridge-based photographer Linda Wolf’s collection of classic rock imagery from the historic 1970 Joe Cocker “Mad Dogs & Englishmen” tour, along with shots from the Mad Dogs Tribute Concert event and reunion with the Tedeschi Trucks Band in September 2015 will be on display at Paper & Leaf through December.

A special opening reception will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20. Paper & Leaf is located at 8040 NE Day Road West (Bldg. 3).

Linda Wolf’s photographs can be found in museums, libraries and private collections around the world.

Some of her very first work came at the age of 20 when, while traveling with Joe Cocker and the many musicians on the “Mad Dogs & Englishmen” tour, she served as one of two official tour photographers.

Wolf boarded the tour bus — along with 42 others, three kids and a dog — and captured more than 4,000 images during her two months on the road.

In addition to Wolf’s images, the display will include a slideshow of other photos from the tour, as well as historical shots of rock icons such as Patty Smith, Jackson Browne and Lowell George and contemporary shots of Leon Russell, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks and more.

Also available will be copies of Wolf’s recent photo book “Joe Cocker: Mad Dogs & Englishmen Memory Book,” as well as hors d’oeuvre by Jake’s Pickup and beverages from Iggy’s Foods.
