“When I was a baby photographer obsessed with records and seeing bands, I was asked by a London music magazine to get a train to a small town in Wales to take pictures of Manic Street Preachers. I had heard their song ‘Motown Junk’ and loved it. I hadn’t yet figured out how to take the kind of pictures I wanted to take. So I made it up. That day. With the beautiful Manics. We were both in our own starting-out all-consuming little worlds and now those worlds collided. For the better part of two years (1991-1992) I followed them around taking pictures - at James’ and Sean’s family home, on tours, at recording sessions, video shoots and in the weird, boring, fascinating random places we found ourselves along the way. These pictures were made in a daze of wide-eyed enthusiasm, wonder, magic and mayhem. They are the beginning of our stories.” - Valerie Phillips
