Music Art

[drummerman]

Perhaps a bit off-topic but do any of you have/know of any nice music art ie. framed canvas prints etc with a music theme, modern or photographic?

 

[John Duncan]

For example?

My question exactly Mr Duncan. What I meant was pictures/sculptures etc music related that would look good in the lounge next to a nice stereo. I guess an example could be the HMV dog ...

but there must be others ... jazz theme perhaps etc.

please help me here, do I make any sense?

The caster's great. Yours?

Yeah - s'nothing special, just a Japanese '57 reissue. Nothing that a new neck, body, pickups, tuners and scratchplate wouldn't fix though.

Here's a personal favourite of mine, a Maxell ad made by Steve Steigman, called 'Blown Away':

The cover of Cut by The Slits would look good in any living room ; )

Followed swiftly by my intestines draped over the curtain rail, I'm thinking.

 

[Drummerdave]

Can't really comment on the potential colour match with the curtains cos I've never seen your intestines - but using them as a makeshift pelmet seems like a splendid idea

Probably go with the sofa, though bit primary for the blinds, in hindsight. With my wife having a background in clothing manufacture, she could probably run up a nice pair of garters as well.
