The greatest Rolling Stones album deserves the most creative record store display.

April 18, 2012 by evpcd

I’m happy to say I’ve once again acquired my favorite Rolling Stones record store display. Standing close to 48″ tall with near naked Mick in black an blue covering himself with nothing more than Andy Warhol’s now infamous record design. Incredibly striking for the time, remember this was 1971, as out there as you get. The Stones never afraid to push the boundaries of what might be considered as “bad taste.” But, that’s why we love ’em. I also learned […]

Greetings From Asbury Park. Actually Boston. Some rare Bruce Springsteen memorabilia.

April 6, 2012 by evpcd

I love “The Boss.” Just recently saw his show in Boston, 4th stop I believe on The Wrecking Ball Tour. Backstage passes and all. The show, 2 1/2 hours long. The experience was amazing. The first time I saw Bruce was back in 1975, the “Born To Run” tour. He played the old Music Hall in Boston. Another 3 plus hour show. After that, I was hooked. Seen dozens and dozens of shows since then. This was one of the […]

“Welcome To My Jungle.” Some rare Guns N’ Roses memorabilia.

April 4, 2012 by evpcd

I’ve been fortunate in my years in advertising to have met some pretty cool people. Like say, Slash for instance. I’ve always been a HUGE Guns N’ Roses and Slash fan. Their critically acclaimed debut album “Appetite for Destruction” is still one of my top five favorite rock albums. Most if not all critics agree it set the bar for heavy metal rock in the 80’s. I just finished up a TV campaign for the L.A. Zoo promoting a new […]
