Got "High Art",(Tede Owen and Denise Dickson) a history of the psychedelic poster, brand spanking new for ?% from Fopp!
Coffee table softback with hundreds of well-printed psychedelic masterpieces from the time when acid was really acid, plus a fair bit of text, comes complete with a coupon to send off for a free silkscreen poster.
An excellent buy for anyone into this stuff.

Isn't Fopp a type of pomade? I'm a Dapper Dan man myself.

Fopp's a fantastic cheap record shop that also sells books - it's an independent chain, there's two in Edinburgh, one in Covent Garden and a good few others round the country. Definitely get one of these it's well worth a fiver :)

There's one in Cambridge that absorbed seventy quid's worth of readies from me on Bauhaus, Neff and NMA reissue CDs recently (cos it's difficult to find a car stereo that plays vinyl).

How spooky is that?

I got a DVD of "Comic Book Confidential", featuring interviews with Robert Crumb, Gilbert Shelton, Art Spiegelman and others, for only a fiver from Fopp. Nice.

Taped that off the telly. Coverage of the 60's is the best bit. The hilarious propaganda reels of kids being warped into murderous automata by EC comics comes a close second.

Rewatching it, it's pretty good and fun, though it's painfully obvious that it was done in the 80s.
No extras though, which is a shame. I remeber this got a release as a CD-ROM (done in Hypercard, of all things) so you'd think there'd be some ready made material right there, but no, it's just a straight shovelware DVD edition.

Some potential for art droid status there.

I'm tempted to go back for the CDs, but there were so many...
