Elsa Hahne and Golden G. Richard III's exhibition of 29 music photos, "Blood, Sweat & Hair," opened at the Jazz & Heritage Gallery (1205 N. Rampart) on Saturday, November 14 and will be running through Friday, December 18. The 29 photos are a retrospective of music images captured over the years by the photography duo.
