From the Book to the Color Series
Published by 66 RPM Edicions in 2024, Caballos Salvajes traces Parsons’ most creative years through the voices of musicians, friends and people from his circle.
The illustrations move through key episodes and locations from Parsons’ story, accompanying the book’s oral narrative with a parallel visual journey through country rock, counterculture and the mythology that grew around him.
Originally created for reproduction in black and white, the illustrations were later revisited as a standalone colour series, expanding the visual language of the book beyond the printed edition.
