Bill Zygmant is a British press and entertainment photographer whose long career included photographing some of the biggest names in music and popular culture. His archive contains more than 60 photographs of The Beatles, together with photographs of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Elton John, The Bee Gees, The Who, Queen and many other internationally known musicians and entertainers. I can also provide photographs of myself with Bill Zygmant as supporting evidence of this personal provenance. The provenance relates specifically to Bill’s personal equipment. No claim is made that this particular camcorder was used for any specific photograph, concert or assignment.
