From his world famous photo of Kurt Cobain's tearful release of energy backstage in 1990, Iggy Pop well near booting the camera out of Tilton's hands, to images of Manchester's pop and rock glitterati, Tilton's pictures ooze warmth, beauty and the visceral power of great Rock 'n' Roll. Now at Stroon Gallery in Manchester's Northern Quarter, Tilton is opening his vast archive of Stone Roses photos to public view, alongside Nirvana and never-before-seen photos of a youthful Oasis. It's an archive that chronicles an amazing period in music's history; 'Madchester', Grunge, Brit-Pop and all those bits in-between when genres nibbled at each other. Professional yet maverick, Tilton is widely recognised as one of the best on the scene.
