This book is very popular, A TIME BEFORE CRACK. I saw it at Reserve on Fairfax, and figured it was a good buy. I remember seeing it on the Fruition blog, after I bought it. But now, it's my turn to shed some light. It's full of pictures taken by Jamel Shabazz during the 70's and 80's. The words said about him and his work is that he has the knack for style and that he connects with the people. Now that's respectable.
