The advert photographer has photographed all the rock stars in the world – Bob Dylan, The Who and The Beatles. Many would have killed to get their hands on concert ticket. But Larsåke Thuresson, came even closer when spending the 60s and the 70s shooting world stars.

There’s a lot that catches your eye, especially the phenomenally relaxed images of some of the biggest icons: Bob Dylan strolling around in Solna. The Who at the Customs in Helsingborg. Simon & Garfunkel on the railway platform in Mariefred. Scott Walker as a hairdresser on a flight to Stockholm. The new couple Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Fältskog at home, in bed. And then The Beatles at their arrival at Arlanda, with a big crowd gathering at the foot of the airplane staircase, photographed close-up from within their aircraft.

In one of Larsåke Thuresson’s photos, you see Agnetha Fältskog and Björn Ulvaeus in bed, kissing. Considering how shy Abba-Agnetha has become today, it’s hard to understand how it was possible to take such a photo.
