Corbijn book (again)
I waited some time to post this, because it was announced - and postponed - more than once, but this time, it just might com true: the long-awaited Waits book by Dutch photographer Anton Corbijn.
From the Schirmer-Mosel site:
Amazon.com still lists September 15, 2009 (!) as the release date but claims it is "Out of Print--Limited Availability".
Magazine Gaffa says the release of the book is to coincide with the premiere of Richard III, the play wich opens in Amsterdam in September. Some of the photos will be exhibited in the theater on that occasion, so the Danish magazine and record company ANTI announce.
(thanks to Judy, Anders, Stefan and Jarlath)
