He has such a unique look.

Photographer Tom Sheehan is synonymous with The Cure, having documented their looks and line ups over the decades. (I was lucky enough to meet Mr Sheehan as a starstruck teen when i interned at Melody Maker many decades ago & my first question to him was of course about Robert Smith!) With some classic portraits, unseen glimpses, and insightful commentary, this beautiful book is a treasure trove & an absolute must for Cure fans.

Wonderful book of photos of The Cure and Robert Smith throughout their career. Informative texts by Sheehan with background info about each set of frankly excellent photos. A creatively-written biography written by Simon Goddard.

What's best is that it's clear that RS & Co. trust Sheehan's creative process and work well with him, producing some amazing photos!

Nice pictures. Not much more to say!
