5.0 out of 5 stars A Haunting Testament to Fame!
The pictue of Kurt Cobain's back on page 74, gives you an idea of what you have in store in this book. Pictures that are so powerful that no words are needed to describe them! Anton has captured some of my favorite bands throughout the years and now finally there is a composite book that captures even more of them. Check out the hauntingly beautiful picture of Jeff...

2.0 out of 5 stars Expected something better
I purchased the Anton Corbin Star Trak book after watching a documentary on his work recently and I was blown away at the quality of his black and white work. Unfortunately, this book for some reason is completely printed in this weird sepia coloured tone making a majority of the images look rather flat and wishy washy. If they were printed the way they were meant to...

5.0 out of 5 stars A Haunting Testament to Fame!, March 2, 1999
This review is from: Star Trak (Hardcover)
The pictue of Kurt Cobain's back on page 74, gives you an idea of what you have in store in this book. Pictures that are so powerful that no words are needed to describe them! Anton has captured some of my favorite bands throughout the years and now finally there is a composite book that captures even more of them. Check out the hauntingly beautiful picture of Jeff Buckley, the tranquil picture of Morrissey, Dave Gahan, and scattered throughout the book very visually stunning pictures of Michael Stipe. This book is a must for photography buffs and anyone who appreciates a great picture! Go for it! Thanks Anton!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sampled Work of an Extraordinary Photographer., September 28, 2002
By 
Anton Corbijn is a genius. As a photographer and/or album cover designer for groups like Depeche Mode, U2, and REM, his unique style captures my attention like no other. Unlike Herb Ritts or Bruce Weber who, by comparison, appear glossy and slick, Corbijn has a gritty approach to photography that makes him stand apart from the competition. No doubt, "Star Trak" is pricey, but for those looking to spice up their coffeetable would be foolish to ignore this great book. A few stars who have gotten the Corbijn treatment are Clint Eastwood, Morrissey, David Gahan, Tricky, Neil Young, Kurt Cobain, and countless others. Handsomely presented and elegantly shot, "Star Trak" is worth a purchase.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I purchased the Anton Corbin Star Trak book after watching a documentary on his work recently and I was blown away at the quality of his black and white work. Unfortunately, this book for some reason is completely printed in this weird sepia coloured tone making a majority of the images look rather flat and wishy washy. If they were printed the way they were meant to look, this book could have rated amongst one of the best books I've got but now it has gone amongst the bottom of the photography book pile due to the way it was printed.

Anton is a darkroom master and I think this is his finest collection. His ability to present celebrities uniquely shines on these pages. My favourite photog.
