In the mid-1970's Craig Stecyk wrote, "Having known Adams over the years I really can't say he's changed much."
He remains one of the most spontaneous, unpredictable persons I've ever encountered... Everything you've ever heard
about him is probably true, or should be anyway. Mere words could never come close to accurately describing him."
Description
Decades later these words still ring true and Jay is a living legend.
Documentaries chronicling his life have won awards, “Hollywood” attempts to corral the real-life story on the screen have failed miserably, the truth is rarely understood. This is a book of photographs of the legend as a boy. Taken by his stepfather, Kent Sherwood, mostly before anyone like Stecyk or myself shot pictures of him, not to mention the legions who would photograph him over the years after we did. These are some rare early moments of Jay, his friends and his lifestyle.
