Joseph Moncure March is best known for The Wild Party and The Set-Up. In 1999, Art Spiegelman brought back The Wild Party from obscurity with the accompaniment with Spiegelman's unique art to the narrative poem. It is quite surprising that March's better-known work, The Set-Up, has been out of print for over 50 years. The Set-Up was made into an award-winning movie with Robert Ryan playing the lead. Unlike the book, Ryan's portrayal of an older white boxer down on his luck changed the dynamics of the movie. Illustrator Erik Kriek was commissioned by Korero Press to revamp the underworld boxing story.

The 70s belonged to Led Zeppelin. They were the biggest band in the world. They were bigger than the Beatles. With that fame the bootleg industry gave rise to unique and illegal recordings of the band. Photographer, Ross Halfin, started collecting these rare pressings of Led Zeppelin albums when he chanced seeing a unique Led Zeppelin album at the original Virgin Records shop in 1971, called "Live on Blueberry Hill."
Saskadelphia (Universal Music Canada/UMe) is made up of six previously unreleased tracks written in 1990. Five recorded in that same year during the Road Apples sessions in New Orleans, and one live track, “Montreal (Live from The Molson Centre, Montreal, 7 Dec 2000),” written at the same time, but for which the original recording is yet to be found.
This year marks 50 years since the passing of Jim Morrison. Jim took the route of stardom as the singer of The Doors. He always fancied himself as a poet and wanted to be taken seriously in that craft. The Lords and the New Creatures, Morrison's first book, was published in 1970 and was considered pretentious at best. His Dionysus complex made him a drunkard buffoon in the eyes of the literary world. Doors fans on the other hand consider his poetic material differently. Morrison is getting the royal treatment with a definite anthology of all his writing. For the first time, unpublished material will be released to the public. The Collected Works of Jim Morrison is an almost 600-page anthology of the writings that promises to please all fans of Jim Morrison.

Did you know that tapirs can spray backward between 7-10 feet? Urine danger.
Profanity has always been a deliciously vibrant part of our lexicon, an integral part of being human. In fact, our ability to curse comes from a different part of the brain than other parts of speech–the urgency with which we say “f&*k!” is instead related to the instinct that tells us to flee from danger.
M.C. Escher: Journey To Infinity is the story of world-famous Dutch graphic artist M.C. Escher (1898-1972). Equal parts history, psychology, and psychedelia, Robin Lutz’s entertaining, eye-opening portrait gives us the man through his own words and images: diary musings, excerpts from lectures, correspondence and more are voiced by British actor Stephen Fry, while Escher’s woodcuts, lithographs, and other print works appear in both original and playfully altered form.
Tick Tock not to be confused with the app that has been around since 1903 and makes teas from the UK. Jamie Nash Studio was approached to design two new flavors of Ginger Boost and Chai Relax art. I am sure you will agree the result is serene with a prancing zebra and a tiger floating through the water. It just makes me want to buy some Tick Tock tea. You will love their merch, the Ginger Boost tote bag is the coolest thing! The red caddy is to die for.
Celebrated artist Keith Haring (1958–1990) has been embraced by popular culture for his signature bold graphic line drawings of figures and forms. Like other graffiti artists in the 1980s, Haring found an empty canvas in the advertising panels scattered throughout New York City’s subway system.
In Clarity & Connection, Yung Pueblo describes how intense emotions accumulate in our subconscious and condition us to act and react in certain ways. In his characteristically spare, poetic style, he guides readers through the excavation and release of the past that is required for growth. A powerful resource for those invested in the work of personal transformation, building self-awareness, and deepening their connection with others.

The shruggie or “smugshrug,” as it is sometimes called, is what’s known as a “kaomoji,” or “face mark” in Japanese. Eisenmann created the unique emoji for her OkCupid (free online dating app) profile. It was rejected by OkCupid.
Brian Reedy caught the attention of Godzilla vs. Kong's director Adam Wingard and he shared the artist's rendition of Godzilla vs. Kong in the medium of woodcutting.
Ian Gillan, at 75 years old, has sung Smoke on the Water since 1972. Whether with Deep Purple, the Ian Gillan Band, and Black Sabbath. He has sung the encore song in the range of 2,500 times for 50 years. I guess Ozzy Osbourne would be in the same dilemma by singing Paranoid.
I can't believe that Frank Miller's Sin City is 30 years old. It is my favorite Miller work, it's a masterpiece. I am biased because I love film noir movies. Miller brilliantly captures the essence of the genre on paper. If you never had a chance to get the original run, now is the perfect time to get a great piece of art with this deluxe edition of Sin City. It would be a sin not to get Volume 1, The Hard Goodbye.
1975 was the peak year for Black Sabbath. Five years in and another four till Ozzy derailed. Sabotage was a strange album with some classic hits but at the same time, the band was going musically in different directions. They were starting to lose their identity. Personally, riff wise I love this album. My favorite song is Symptom of the Universe. It has so many guitar sounds that explore different experimental tunes.
