"Robert, a former Rolling Stone photog has shot pictures of every Rock and Roll star who matters, as well as actors, world leaders, artists, and the occasional regular Joe. His web design is brilliant, with elaborate multimedia done in a way that you 486er's can enjoy it along with you Pentium II people.

He has taken on the added title of video producer. His QT is there to check out, along with his great films list and (of course) his brilliant use of the camera. The images are tiny, but they look big. Sound is provided, via midi music.

It is possible to make a great web experience while gobbling a tiny amount of bandwidth."

"Something similar recently happened to me. I hit the January 22nd link, and it looked like a site I'd never seen before! The proprietor has been hard at work, improving things and improving what was already an outstanding site.
The MultiMedia Pick for --Robert Altman Productions
If you haven't hit this spot lately, hang on to your seat. It's absolutely amazing. Included, along with a ton of classic rock and roll photos, are The Great Films List, Cool Words That Are Fun to Say, a tribute to San Francisco Chronicle columnist Herb Caen, and lots more new pics. There are sound bites, too. Take a look! "
"The world renowned rock photographer Altman has amassed a body of work that has made him one of rock and roll's greatest photographers.

Since the Sixties Altman has established a legendary body of work."

Four Radiation Warnings!!
"This is a massively radioactive site and a fine example of the power of HTML! The Florida Mutants love it and give it a big three thumbs up!!"... Brian's Clark

his fascinating photo gallery is part of the private Web site of Robert Altman (not that Robert Altman -- this one used to shoot covers for Rolling Stone). The various galleries offer a tour through Altman's shooting life: the emphasis is on music and the 1960's (Janis Joplin, the Rolling Stones, and a boyish-looking Neil Young). The "Celebrity Wing" offers lovely portraits and funny stories about Joe Montana, Kirstie Alley and Groucho Marx. This guy is very, very good: a great find for anyone who likes portraits, rock history, or modern culture in general."

I HAVE SURFED THE FUTURE
I was un-cooly floundering through the Internet at The Icon Byte Bar & Grille with composer David Litwin and rock photographer Robert Altman. They had me hitting blinking keys and making hyper-text markup language links, or whatever, to get to programs offered by INTRRRR NRRRD, It was easier to do than to say or comprehend.

"This is the future." said Altman. "This is not the CB radio craze. This is it."
Altman's photographs are now displayed worldwide on the Internet. His friend, rock star David Crosby, who is recovering from surgery in L.A., put it in a nice way. He said that space travel never came true, but the Internet part of it has.

Jon Warren Lentz
Photo Metro Magazine
May, 1996
"Robert Altman is a mercurial talent who has led both his profession and his generation and who has--in turn--been turned and led by the events impacting his generation and his profession. If this was true of the young Altman, former chief-photographer for Rolling Stone magazine, then it is a treble verity for the 51 year old award-winning web master, educator and photographer-gone-digital.
In my opinion, the quality and character of Altman's presence on the web is emblematic of a new future for photographers and photography as well. ...Although Altman's site has an certain authority which derives from the overall high quality of his archive, it is also, at turns, bravely idiosyncratic, raw, embarrassing, chic, kitsch, sublime, tawdry, nostalgic, sublime, sweet, and personal....there are several powerful bodies of work here.
In a medium where you can have dynamite content and still have a terrible web site, Altman's site succeeds in both areas. It is well crafted throughout. Everything is tuned for the WWW medium and perfectly balanced at the antipodes of image-quality and download-speed."

Altman is a renowned photographer who has worked for Rolling Stone and throughout his photographic career documented music and culture from the sixties and beyond. He has photographed many sixties luminaries such as Tim Leary, Ken Kesey, and the days of the hippie movement in San Francisco. His photographs capture the style of his subjects, including the punk energy of Iggy Pop (my favorite image), the eccentricity of Bo Diddley, and the spirit of Tina Turner. Altman's images reflect a history and kinship with his subjects; he transcends the sense of observer to become closer, catching the off-guard and often unseen personalities in the presence of his camera.

"An amazing collection of photographs, animations..." Bay Area Art Source
"The job is so new there's no "average" profile for its occupants who vary widely in age and backgrounds like former Rolling Stone photographer Robert Altman." MASTERS OF THE WEB, Linda Dailey Paulson, San Francisco Examiner (Aug. 13)
"Hey Hey! I'm the CD-ROM editor at a magazine called The Net. Robert Altman Communications has received the highest rating possible in our Reviews section." ...Lauren Guzak
Inner Views with Shining Souls "Robert has the warped and wonderful sense of humor that I find is often the product of those of us that survived and treasure the 60's. Don't miss his work, it's classic!...Chelle Rogers.
"The ABSOLUTE Best Website in existence (other than my own *wink*) is Robert Altman's WWW Page. This is a definite MUST-SEE!"... J.C. Lopez
"IMHO this one of the finest pages on the WWW, indeed it is one of the finest collections of images from a very skilled photographer and documentator. Being a photojournalist I can really appreciate this page..." Mark Lewis.
"I have seen enough to put you at the top of my list...'a great introduction to photography on the WWW.' Your pages are so well done and I enjoyed them so much."... Jeff Stanford, PhotoGum
 
"This is Robert Altman the former chief photographer for Rolling Stone magazine, not Robert Altman the film director. After viewing some of his photos, I realized what the phrase "a photo is worth a thousand words" means. He has tons of photos, his pages featuring everyone from Groucho Marx to Joe Montana to Cintra Wilson to lesser known subjects. I was really surprized how much his photo of former Cheers star Kirstie Alley amazed me. He made her look "timeless", a word often used to describe stars like Joan Crawford and Marilyn Monroe. And, as with all of his photos, he gives you a few details on Kirstie under the photo. I smiled when I saw how much Groucho Marx looked like my grandfather does now, and again when read that he hated Richard Nixon. His pictures that were taken during the 60's did something for me that no other picture taken during that period has been able to do: give me a real feel of the era without showing me a peace rally, a civil rights clash, or a VW bus.
This site is wonderful, not only for those who are photo-enthusiasts, but also by people who love looking at beautiful or moving things (I think that includes everyone). SIZZLING!!!: Hotter than...well, you know where. Couldn't put it on my hotlist fast enough!" Tap panga
 
"The realm of the digital is where world views collide: order and chaos, science and imagination, truth and fiction. And in its midst, attempting to express and disseminate those dichotomies is the artist. There is no better place where these struggles are more artfully expressed in the photographic medium than in Robert Altman's digital gallery."
...LD Paulson, ComputerEdge Magazine Cover Story

"An amazing museum of images...

Altman took some of the most memorable images of the last three decades of music and counter-culture around.

His images have impacted our minds and memories. In addition to many images of the rock stars he caught in the bloom of their youth, there are scads of photos of the 60s and the movers and shakers who helped make what happened happen. Most of the images contained in this online gallery are accompanied with related links.

Mr. Altman is probably unapproachable in photography as a perfect blend of photojournalist and star-shooter. His access to the moments and individuals which created the cultural shift in the 60s put him in the unique place of being the ONLY person who could have taken many of the pictures he took. In effect, this made him one of the movers and shakers of that era, by virtue of his bringing these images to our eyes and our minds. Without this imagery, many of the heroes of that generation may not have been as deified as they became.

In his site he documents not only his prolific photographic output, but his own life - then and now - and there really is no better online document of that era and it's transformation into this one. There's no reason this site shouldn't be a mecca."

"Thank you Sir for the education that my era is so ignorant too, we are willingly blinded to our countries history even events that happened just around the corners from our homes. I was browsing through your photo album and came across photographs of people on Mt.Tamalpias, I have come to find that my mother and father spent many of the teen age years there. I never realized it had any significance such as the "holding together." I feel as if I now have a connection with my parents past, and I can relate to the era that they grew up in.

I will point more folks to your site. Keep up the good work!
CYBERPAX,- Leslie Owen Everett - Mass College of Art - Computer Arts Center

"Your site was one of the most influential ones that I had ever been.
Today, I feel sic that I ws born in the wrong time at the wrong place. Maybe todays world does not influence me as much as the late 60's does. I guess, thats where you are lucky .... DAMN lucky. Thanks for all the pains you have put into your site. I enjoyed it a lot."
Gyanesh M Khanolkar, India

"Your site is really fantastic! I love the films of the man who has same name of yours. But your site is more interesting than his films.

" Love your page. Best I've found. Keep it up."... D & C Leming

First off I have no idea why I'm writing this other than I somehow feel obligated to thank you for making this available on the internet. I am sitting here several hours past when I was to leave work on a Friday addicted to the site. I'm a 35 year old guy that is just old enough to remember the time that most of these photos capture but not nearly old enough to understand it. Somehow after clicking until my fingers ache I almost feel as if I was there for a moment. It kind of takes me back when I look at the old black and whites of myself as a kid. Thank you very much, this has certainly been the most rewarding internet experience I've every had and I've worked with this business for a very long time. Thank you again, Charles Dobbins
"I really enjoyed the photographs. You have obviously put much care into this, and it shows. Very nice!"...Karl Nehring
"Robert, I just have to tell you that your web site is consistently the most fun and well done sites around -- whenever I come back to it I am newly impressed! This time I really liked the Netscape 2.0 photo gallery -- what a *perfect* use for the columns. If only all web publishers were as creative and had a good eye!"...Bryna Bank, CyberOrganic

"Thank you...This is great! I spent 10 yrs on the road after leaving home at 16 to get to know Amarika up close and personal like, (A very informative adventure). Well worth every moment. I've been basing myself out of Eugene Or. for the last 6 yrs, getting to know the community, taking classes at the community college when I can.
Well, anyway, through a twist of fate, one of my friends won over 30 mil in the Ca. lotto and sent me a computer. It was enough instigation to borrow the money to go back to college full-time. I'm half way through my first semester(oh-boy). To make a long story short, I bumped into your web page surfing tonight and man was I impressed. To see so much of what makes my life a pleasure, in one place, has really given me a booster shot of faith in humanity,(ya, I know, a little thick).
Thanks for this beautiful web page.

Surfed into your stuff over lunch and spent way too much time going through it. Wonderful. Kinda "took me home", to happier, simpler days, sadness and melancholy recalling friends lost to time and distance. I almost cried, and still may. Thank you so much. Chaz Clover

I cannot see because my eyes are not dry. These were the best times of my life. I cannot believe I did not die.

"Stumbling around your site is absolutely awesome!"...Herb Goldblum, Chevron
"You think you recognise the name? I think you do. Altman's archive has some really historic rock, folk, everything musical portraits, gig shots, candids. Pleasantly unpredictable: you thought you were going to get a big JPEG, but instead you zoomed in on a close-up of part of the original file (etc)."...The Global Network Navigator

i love it, every photo sent this strange fuzzy feeling throughout my body. i have always pondered the thought of why i was born in this era, i am now 19.... i feel almost robbed or raped of what would have been the best experience. i did realize however, someone needs to be around to keep the spirit alive :) but anyways i think your photographs are so beautiful. peace. blessed be. kristin rude

What a full, rich, and enchanted life you have had. I envy your memories... to have been at the center of it all. You should do a book...sort of a recollection of the '60s for the rest of us...a national scrapbook of sorts. Thanks for the trip back....Robert Abbate

"Anyone interested in the history of rock should visit the online gallery of San Francisco-based photographer Robert Altman. The ex-Rolling Stone lensman has assembled a wonderfully well-presented celebration of his life's work, with a host of rock and celebrity pictures from the last 25 years (including Mick Jagger, Dennis Hopper, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison) and some great stories (particularly his historic lunch with Groucho Marx)... Vox Magazine
"He sure has a good Web site, and he was the chief photographer for Rolling Stone magazine. Needless to say, his Classic Rock Photo Gallery is a must to visit, but this huge site is worth spending some time in." As reviewed in Excite NetSearch
"Former Rolling Stone photographer Robert Altman's snapshots of famous people, with a focus on Sixties-era rock stars. On a tour of the site you'll catch Janis Joplin on-stage at the Avelon Ballroom, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards recording Let It Bleed, and Roger Daltrey performing TOMMY with The Who. The photographs are uniformly excellent."... The Global Network Navigator

"Any guy who has taken photos of Jim Morrison, Jerry Garcia, Groucho Marx and Beaver Cleaver must be cool. Robert Altman has a Web site loaded with pictures from his portfolio that span three decades. In his former career, Altman was the chief photographer for Rolling Stone magazine. His Web site showcases his best work from the Rolling Stone years, as he captured everything from the psychedelic music revolution of the late 1960's to the political activism of a generation who refused to remain silent.

Although a good photo is worth a thousand words, Altman chooses to complement these stark portraits with interesting anecdotes. Read Groucho Marx's blunt description for his disgust for former President Nixon. Find out how hard it is to convince Bonnie Raitt to sit still for a snapshot. Other celeb mugshots on the site include those of Dennis Hopper, Caesar Chavez, Elton John, Mick Jagger and Timothy Leary. Altman recently traded his photo lens for a digital camera, and teaches Web design at the Center for Electronic Art in San Francisco. This is one Web site suitable for framing." Bonnie J. Burton, Feb, 1996, The Net magazine
