Peter Sanders


The photographs on the cover of the original album were taken by Peter Sanders. Sanders was Bolan's best man when he married at the beginning of 1970. He is a British photographer. His later works focus on the Muslim community around the world, especially on their traditional and spiritual aspects. Having more than four decades of experience in photography, he is one of the most renowned and respected Muslim photographers in the world. Before converting to Islam in 1971 London born Sanders began his career in photography in the mid-1960s, where he often recorded the faces of well-known musicians including Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and The Rolling Stones. In the 1970s, his attention shifted, which led him to photographing Islamic subjects.
