Artist Portrait

Randy Bachman


Credited with Photography. During the 1980's, Randy was one of best known and most successful rock photographers on the West Coast. He regularly photographed concerts by most of the San Francisco Bay Area's best known bands, including Journey, Sammy Hagar, Santana, Y&T and Night Ranger. His photo credits were a Who's Who of 1980's rock. His photos appear on album covers such as Journey's "Escape", Sammy Hagar's "All Night Long" plus albums by Santana, Y&T and many others. Standing less than four foot tall, the result of a rare bone disease, The Bachman possessed a spirit of giant proportions. In September 1987 Randy was killed when a drunk driver ran him down outside a nightclub in San Francisco. Randy Bachman may have been small in stature but he made a big impression on San Francisco rock and roll. In 1995, "Photopass", a book containing the best of Randy's photos was published. Narrated by San Francisco Chronicle critic Joel Selvin, with a forward by Sammy Hagar, "Photopass" is a lasting monument to Randy's talent.
