To celebrate the release of The Flaming Gnomes first single, former Hipgnosis design artist Jeff Cummins has produced a limited edition print of the front cover. Jeff as one of Storm Thorgerson's team has designed many iconic album covers, with Paul Mc Cartney, Moody Blues, Ted Nugent, Pink Floyd, UFO, Whitesnake and Rainbow being just a few of the bands that Jeff has worked with. Among his other work, Jeff has produced the Dr. Who artwork for the various Target book covers. Look in at http://www.jeffcummins.com to see more of his work. There will only be 300 prints available, numbered and signed by Jeff. Each print retails for £20 which includes postage and packing.

A load of drums and cybals being hit, or a load of studio knobs being twiddled.
Thank you for adding me to your circle of friends! Have a nice day! Please come and listen my new songs or read and comment any of my Blogs when you have time! Thanks, xx Gabriela Romaria
Nick got some bongos for Christmas from Syd in '68 - he's always wanted that 'special project' to try them out on but Waters Gilmour and Wright always said no to the bongos - this could be his chance at last!The idea that we and Atheen might do something together would be amazing were it ever possible to get us in a room with drums guitars keyboards and microphone thingys!:)
Time and money conspire together with me lol but I'd like to do something yes!Verity's stuff is excellent as is Atheen's - hey we could be a supergroup together like an experimental prog rock Abba - but I think onstage you and I would have to kind of stand in the background.. with no lighting on us lol.. :) (oh and maybe Nick Mason could drum on it? lol)
Thanks for those very kind words William - I'd be up for most anything me but be warned I am the most all over the place time stressed person ever lol! We will find ways... K :)
Hi William It was great to meet up! Loving the tracks, let me know if you want a hand wth promotion. Will have to check out the studio some time. Catch up soon Atheen x
William - could have talked to you for hours - hey come to think of it I did lol - and now we've totally transformed the UK music business overnight between you ,me and Atheen - up the revolution! Long Live The Floyd! K :)

Jack Dupon's video almost live at a private concert...
Oppression
Si c'est trop loin de chez vous, si vous avez mieux a faire, si sortir vous fait peur... Découvrez la vidéo de Jack Dupon presque en live lors d'un concert privé filmé sur Clermont-1ère en octobre 2008...
........Notre nouveau clip, entièrement fait à la main... PIG MONSTER.
Déjanté, hors normes, expérimental, décalé, théâtral, déglingué.
........Our new music video, entirely handstitched .... PIG MONSTER.
Crazy, non-standard, out of norme, unusual, experimental, out of phase, theatrical, delirious.

BONNE ANNÉE, GROSSES BISES et VIVE le ROCK...
"At last a follow up to Janette Mason's sparkling debut as leader. Alien Left Hand ....was well worth the wait…” Production **** Performance**** -- BBC Music Magazine
“…an album fizzing with fresh ideas and delights, an exhilarating musical journey .. with brilliantly original writing and inspired playing…” -- Helen Mayhew
"Every track from the rhythmic ‘NY Cab Ride’ and restless ‘4 Wheel Drive’ to the brooding ‘Mae’s Song’ has a terrific hook but it’s the way Mason switches tempo and moods that makes ALH great fun. " -- Diva Magazine
Our beloved colleagues!
Thank you for your friendship!
Watch us and enjoy!
We are looking for a manager, who will help us to participate major Jazz Festivals and/or book concert tours overseas.
