Joe Strummer running the 1983 London Marathon by Steve Rapport
Signed limited edition print of Joe Strummer during the 1983 London Marathon by Steve Rapport.
Steve recalls “ I got a call out of the blue from Rolling Stone. They told me Joe Strummer was running in the London Marathon on April 17th, and they needed a photo. I don’t think I’d ever worked for them before (in total I think they only ever gave me maybe three assignments). They gave me no other info - no contact name, nothing. So early on the morning of the race I drove over to Blackheath from my home in Clapham. It was drizzling, and there were around around 30,000 people assembling on the common for the race. I parked, got out of my car... and there was Joe, standing there plain as day, in the midst of the swarm, warming up. He was wearing a torn Police and Thieves t shirt, and some bloke, without recognizing him, said “nice t shirt mate.” I walked over, (re)introduced myself, and took a few photos, including the lovely one of him smiling. This is truly one of my favorite photos from my entire career.”
