Im getting ready to do ebay his wek ill Focus on Music movies of Rock..
the 30 x 40 has a taped tear down the middle agout 19 inches from bottom
otherwise just some wear on edges and no pinholes....color looks great..
id like 200.00 and 13 shipping obo otherwise it will be on ebay...i
take paypal...
now my old rocke memorie,,im 60 almost 61 so we do this awhile then we
die...as we hit that chrord from the beatles- the end,,,LOL:)
I had a flashback to age 15 about 1971 i was in art class and i wa
drawing a pic of Led zepplin.. and it was like animaion i had asked the
shool to let me quit as i wanted to play Rock and troll and was getting
gigs at bars at age 15 doing lek jazz and country as that paid 25.00 a
man and in 1971 that was ok loot..
so im sitting there in my heavy metalanimation drawing coshatch on pages
marshall ,, i could here tem playing -hey hey mama gone make you sweat
gonna make you groove,,, whena kid cam up amd said why dont you be like
therest of us and draw florals....i creacked and said be like therest
ofyou?? hats the point i dont want to be like the rest of you..nwhichi
tooka bottle of purple tempure paint and squessed it righ inthe guys
kisser!!! theni took my desk and threw up the papers and went weeeee..
and a riot ensued of kids going run for your life type attitude...
right then the art teacher entered the room..a effeminate man he stared
flaing his hands in frustartion saying my clas my cals you distrupted my
class....!!!
so i ended up in the pricipals office he saysok martin you win yo can
leave i haveto expell you though..and he said but the last guy i
expelled was mark farner of grand funk rrailroda i shook his hand and
said thank You sirr yiull never regret this...and so my 72 i was playing
full time..and in 73 i gota cal from Toledomostfamous 50s rock band
;Johnny and he hurricanes..Johhny paris who said hey kid i heard your
pretty good...
the thing abot 50s music is its clean trite licks vs the zepplin
distorion so john would always tease me as the kid wonder whei would
crank outa solo to jimmy page iss or clapton ish..
s the rock films ill have are from when i was in my music prime..liek
this Tommy poster 1975 i did a 45rpm that ear very bubble gum commercial
because the studio guy said it has to be snappy to be a hit,,,
I also have alice cooper movie poste who i met several tims around 71-72
and on conert for bangledesh i was almost signed to leaon Russell label
shelter records and i went there in 1976 and they had my demos on the
tableso they where genuine..also i have ac/dc trick or tret,, Zackariah
with the james gang met walsh when they played toldeo and asked him for
his smasshed speaker botton,,,so thhese poser will be a trip down memory
lane....i also have b eatles and other rock films lkelast waltz, and
others..somepunk stuff and detroit rock city andothers like that horror
flick i forgot rihjy now has the cramps and others think its romero...
i also have rock magazine , rollng stone,and fan magazine, hit parader
and beatle mags going back to 60s..also teen beat and stuffliek
that...Johnny dated tina Louis the movie ster from gilligans island and
introduced Dick clark to his wwife.... he also wa on that tour on Bus
that big booper and Buddy holly doed in a plane crash so he was very hip
toRock and taught me loads ofshow biz advice wheni was just 17..when he
pased i was a paullbearer..a few yearsback,, the bestles warmed up for
the hurricanes at tehstar Club in hamburg germany...
so its been a lot of music history for me.. i met pete best the 1st
drummerand he remebered John,,,
but John Bonham to me is the buddy rich of rock the gonzo just had the
best grooves i ever heard,, i still default to those tunes.. when i play
even though im no where near pages sound.... Greg knows what im talking
about as he haas ernie ball blood in him also...long Live rock...:)
