Fuck You Too: The Extras + More — Music and Skating thru is my favourite photography book ever and what’s is that it contains some sweet sweet photos of the Dogtown days. This book is unbelievable, if for nothing else, just for the sheer volume of Hardcore Punk, Hardcore Hip Hop legends, Hardcore Skateboarding (much Dogtown), and MORE, all in here. Here are some of his Dogtown skateboarding photos.

Friedman’s previous book was much more selective, he says this is his “scrapbook” of leftovers but he’s really downplaying it, it’s much much more in several ways. This one contains a way larger cast of characters and is much more relaxed in it’s presentation. I think it’s cool for that. Only downfall is that it’s a softcover, but for $20 I can’t really complain. There’s over 300 pictures in this 168 page book and it just looks amazing, so much energy comes off the pages. It’s a perfect companion to F*** YOU HEROES with this 2nd edition black cover, I love it.

Lots of amazing obscure PUNK shots, of the Bad Brains, Black Flag, Dead Kennedy’s, Misfits, TSOL, Wierdos, Minutemen, Minor Threat, Husker Du,
D.O.A., Social Distortion, Reagan Youth, Circle Jerks, the Make-Up, Suicidal Tendencies, Cramps, Big Boys, Ramones, GERMS, the Faith, Necros, Descendents, Adolescents, Stimulators, Discharge, the Damned, Murphy’s Law, UK Subs, Angelic Upstarts, S.S. Decontrol, 999, BuzzCocks, tons of Fugazi.

Classic incredible Hip-Hop shots of Run-DMC, Beastie Boys, LL Cool Jay, Ice-T, South Central Cartel, Busy Bee, Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, Ultra Magnetic MC’s, KRS-1, Kurtis Blow, King Tee, PUBLIC ENEMY, A Tribe Called Quest, Fat Boys, Eric B.& Rakim, even U.T.F.O.!

The skate shots are of all the originators in DogTown (Tony Alva, Jay Adams, Shogo Kubo, Jim Muir, Paul Constantineau, and Stacy Peralta - Dogtown skate photos not in any of his other books - most notably of Jay Adams at the DogBowl.) Some great East Coast shots too, and classic
early stuff of folks like Duane Peters, Steve Caballero, Lance Mountain,

Gator, Blender, Ray “Bones”, “Wally”, “Playboy” Bobby Piercy, Steve Alba, Alan “Ollie” Gelfand, Tom Groholski, Mike McGill, Eddie Elgura, Christian Hosoi, and more.

Some of the other obscure interesting shots include portraits of Rick Rubin, Russell Simmons and C.R.Stecyk. Music stuff of the DeadBoys-Stiv Bators, Go-Go’s, Sting of the Police, Billy Idol when still in Generation-X, AC/DC, Iggy Pop, Johnny Thunders, and killer shots of Slayer.

Believe it or not there’s more I didn’t even mention. You will be pleasantly surprised by this book. It packs a great punch of classic shots that you won’t find by any other photographer anywhere.

EXCELLENT!
