About the Item

The Jam relaxing at Frank's Cafe on Lexington Street, Soho during their photo shoot for the cover of 'News of the World'. Taken by photographer Martyn Goddard in 1978. Martyn Goddard recalls, "For the cover of News of the World, the band wanted to continue the Carnaby Street theme so we met up in Soho early on a cold, damp winter's day. The plan was shoot the group walking down the street towards the viewer as if you were passing them in the street. The dull weather wasn't such as problem as Westminster Council had pedestrianised the street, covering the road surface with yellow, black and orange rubber flooring, and the early start meant there was just the odd fashion store assistance scurrying to work. The shoot was necessarily cut short due to the busy location and the group members complaining at the early start and lack of breakfast" "As luck would have it I knew the Soho area well, not because I frequented the many dodgy strip clubs and bars in the area, but because my father-in-law ran an electrical contracting business in adjacent Beak Street and was the font of all knowledge when it came to local cafes. I led the way to Frank's Cafe around the corner where I shot one of the most informal and interesting rolls of 35mm film of the band. Paul Weller on the left having a cup of tea and smoke while the rhythm section tucked into a good fry up!"

After a period assisting acclaimed photographer Gered Mankowitz, Martyn Goddard became a regular face on the New Wave music scene of the seventies and early eighties. This was an era of LP picture discs with serious budgets requiring creative photography. Photographing acts such as Blondie, The Jam, The Cure, Sham 69, Ian Dury, and Toyah lead to commissions from Queen and Elton John’s Rocket Records in the rock mainstream. While working for the Sunday Telegraph Magazine, You and Sunday Times Magazine in the 1980’s Goddard shot portraits and features with recording acts such as Genesis, U2, Jethro Tull, UB40 and Wham, progressing to portraits of great writers, artists, actors and politicians. A period of working with Wham in the late 1980’s, including their groundbreaking tour of China, closed a chapter of life within the music business. Martyn went on to work for Car magazine, creating new techniques of automotive and travel photography. keywords The Jam Paul Weller MOD Mods british punk rock fashion 1970s 70s mens fashion sunglasses...
