The Love Song and Rankin
Rankin, British photographer and director, picks the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. There's the daily love song plus another round of PopMaster.
Rankin, British photographer and director, chooses the Tracks of My Years all week with Ken. Rankin has photographed fashion models, notably Kate Moss and personalities including Madonna, David Bowie and the Queen.
In 1991 Rankin and fellow LCP student Jefferson Hack launched the magazine Dazed & Confused after their experience of having started a College of London student union magazine. The following year Rankin launched his own quarterly fashion magazine, Rank. He also publishes AnOther Magazine, AnOther Man and in 2011 founded Hunger, a bi-annual fashion, culture and lifestyle magazine.
During the Covid pandemic Rankin created a series of portraits of key health workers to highlight the essential services provided by the NHS while celebrating the individual subjects for their contribution to society.
In 2021 he hosted the Great British Photography Challenge on ´óÏó´«Ã½4 and worked with Holocaust Memorial Day Trust as a celebrity judge for their Light Up The Darkness competition.
This week on the 14th May Rankin will be lead judge at the inaugural Abbey Road Studios Music Photography Awards – the first ever awards to celebrate the art of music photography. The MPAs will recognise the year’s most unforgettable, unique and unsung music moments and the varied and talented photographer who captured them.
The next two tracks Rankin has chosen come from The Who and Crosby, Stills & Nash. Ken also has the daily love song plus another round of PopMaster. If you'd like to get in touch with the show email Ken.Bruce@bbc.co.uk
