Serge Gainsbourg & Jane Birkin Christmas Cards

Radio Live Transmission

My twitter mucker @RingoLee11 has a radio show on this Sunday the 23rd of October; it will be great. Here's some 'cyber flyers' I did for him with a Reid Miles feel to it.

She Just Satisfies

Jimmy Page's solo single from 1965 is a freakbeat-tastic treat worthy of The Kinks. It also costs a small fortune to purchase an original copy. Luckily for those of us without limitless resources it was reissued for Record Store Day this year. However the repro Fontana sleeve was a very sorry looking thing so it was decided to give it the lovely European picture sleeve it deserved. The raison d'etre being in this parallel universe 'She Just Satisfies' was reissued in 1967 with a current picture of the Yardbirds era Page. The rear of the sleeve features other Fontana artists worthy of your inspection.

Bonnie & Clyde

In the mid/ late 1990s a good friend of mine did me a compilation tape of Serge Gainsbourg. The song which immediately hit home was Bonnie & Clyde which to this day is one of my favourite songs ever. A few years later (in the days before youtube) I saw a bootleg video of Bonnie & Clyde which was everything I wanted to see: French coolness, cigarettes, gun holsters and berets. Serge and Brigitte looked brilliant in it. For this limited edition print I wanted to capture that feeling of seeing that bootleg video for the first time. 35 copies signed and numbered printed on high quality 250 gram silk paper. Available here.

Who's Your Dad? Update

Eagle eyed readers will have noticed that all posts relating to this project have been removed. This is because having completed pre-production work the film has gone into "production hell". Hopefully one day the stars will align and work can continue on this fabulous project as the world really needs this hybrid of "The Banana Splits" and "Eat The Document".

Paperback Writer

The "lost novel" as an actual novel.

George Spiggott

The Peter Cook and Dudley Moore tour de force Bedazzled has been a favourite of Piper Gates for a long time (see here and here). Deciding to look at the subject with a different approach it was decided to incorporate the pop art visuals of the Stanley Donen film with the design of Dudley's beloved jazz albums. It was then presented in the look of a lost novel and available as a limited edition of thirty 30cm x 40cm prints here.

Colour Me Pop

The subject of the annual Piper Gates Design colouring book is those Cheeky scamps The Small Faces. It was decided to concentrate of the “soul boys on acid” 67-68 phase as this is musically and visually Piper Gates favourite period of their career and one which lends itself to the medium of the colouring book perfectly. As with previous editions it features a 4 page full cover colour cover plus 16 pages of colouring in fun. The size is A4 and comes in a limited edition of 80 copies. Available here
