Random Books

Boris Vallejo Cover.^

Gino Achilleos cover. ^
Frank C Pape Cover ^ (Thanks JC).
'The Devil Rides Out' for Farmer Glitch. What a fucking great cover. Don't know the artist, feel free to enlighten me (JC?).
Thought I'd just randomly post a few books I've got my hands on recently - for no other reason than I haven't posted any lately.

Dennis Wheatley

I have to say, I do love a book with a giant Nazi on the cover.

Sunburn



As Kek rightly pointed out over on Kid Shirt (while the whole 10cc fever thing winds down), I only really got involved due to Graham Gouldman doing the theme to Sunburn (1979), in which Farrah Fawcett wears this fetching get up. It also stars Charles Grodin, one of my favourite character acting gods.

Doomsday

Saw Doomsday last night. Quite enjoyed it, despite some of the worst editing I have ever seen. I can see why it got so slagged off, there isn't one original idea in it, and, although I assume it's supposed to be a homage to Aliens / Mad Max 2 / Escape From New York, it's all so specific, Neil Marshall takes chunks of films and just copies them. There's a scene in it that's identical to the chase to the subway station in The Warriors.
Still, lots of gore and Rhona Mitra makes it kind of watchable. Always good to see Sean Pertwee's still getting work. He married a friend of mine don't you know.

PS : Fantastic to see people have been finding textless soft porn genius Bugwar objectionable. I guess now he won't be premiering my ink & paper Susan Storm pix. Ah well, if you want to see some I'll happily send them straight to your inbox. I would post them here, but I have standards.

Graham Gouldman - Sunburn

Top Ten 10cc Songs

Well, over on Kid Shirt it's gone 10cc crazy. So, anyway, here's my top ten, well eight, 10cc songs:

01/ Rubber Bullets.

02/ Sunburn (Graham Gouldman).

03/ Donna.

04/ I'm Mandy, Fly Me.

05/ I'm Not In Love (It's pretty shit, but I snogged a girl called Judith to it in 1978).

06/ Building A Bridge To Your Heart (Wax : Graham Gouldman & Andrew Gold).

07/ Under Your Thumb (Godley & Creme). Just so crap it's genius.

08/ Clockwork Creep (Never heard it but what a great title).

There you go, I feel much better for that.
