Yesterday, we featured a couple of the more unusual (more unlikely) subjects from the Allen Ginsberg photo collection housed at The University of Toronto's Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library - Madonna and Warren Beatty. Today, we feature another - images of Sinead O'Connor. The occasion was her June 20, 1992 set at the legendary (New York) East Village club, Sin-é (famous also as the spawning ground for the young Jeff Buckley)
On October 3, just three months later, she appeared in the notorious segment on NBC's Saturday Night Live, singing an a cappella version of Bob Marley's "War" and ripping up a photo of the Pope (John Paul II)
