Light In The Attic is distributing another album, that played a part in the evolution of music. Bobby Frank Brown Live (Divinity And Dignity Of All Life), is his second recording. It followed his legendary, The Enlightening Beam Of Axonda, which is considered by many, as the holy grail of rare psych albums. To be more portable, he rebuilt most of the 50 or so pioneering instruments he used for Axonda. His first performance with his new instruments, at UC Davis, went amazingly well. David Dowd wrote "A one man phenomenon, with an incredible voice.". Another article in that university paper said the Axonda album, "told it's truths, better than wading through volumes of Plato, Kant, and Shopenhauer." With his new smaller creations, he decided to put off going back to LA, and a certain major record deal. He started playing flea markets, and selling his albums. That worked super, an he loved the freedom. It was the beginning of one of the first successful Indie labels. One reason he left LA, David Geffen put Bobbys manager, Chuck Plotkin, as head A&R of Asylum Records. Bobby wanted to get back with Chuck when the time was right. Chuck produced Springsteen projects, then Dylan, an then several top film scores. Bobby just loved traveling, playing street music, hitch hiking, and living like a hobo. Sometimes sleeping in bushes, but mostly staying with people that bought his albums. His first paid singing job was in Haiti. Also he worked as a first mate sailing the Caribbean. Bobby wants to co-produce a Rock album with Chuck some day.This Live album he used instruments he played in the South Pacific. He opened a Fleetwood Mac, and Kenny Logins concert, in the stadium at UC Santa Barbara. For this Live album, to get a high quality sound, he decided to record those songs in his van, with just his dog for an audience. He could have used the first high quality loop pedal, built for him by Ed Haas. But as he did in the last half of the Axonda album, it was hands an feet a goin. At that stadium concert, when he turned on his pioneering deep base electronic beats, the crowd let out a big whoa. Those electronic rhythms are very common in music now. On albums 4-7 he will play his many percussion instruments over them. Larry Finley master drummer said "Bobby has incredible rhythm, it's uncanny." He used that to win many dance contests up and down California, Wolfman Jack judged one in Hollywood, an likely would have helped Bobby ounce signed to a record label. Where ever he played, looking at comments by some people that saw him live, they felt love, an great affection for hime. Even with his new smaller set of instruments, on this Live album. Seeing Axonda live was a very deep spiritual experience for many. His new physics ideas were totally new. After a performance at The Troubador, Chuck Plotkin pointed out, "They didn't understand the words, but what they loved, what they related to, was the vibe." The Axonda album is considered by many, as the first pioneering recording, for new age healing music. This Live album, his second, could fit right in at a rock, country, or folk concert. Especially at earth day concerts. Bobby ad libs a lot, an jazz audiences would love it. Actually because of the creativity, an immense talent, he would likely go over very well with most any audience, even in church.Did Bobby influence many musicians to play with electronic sounds, oh yea! And world music got a boost from his altered home made musical instruments, and the unique way he played them. These songs are about his immense love of animals, an peace, with comments to preserve the environment. Many environmental concerns expressed in music back then, were a bit of a rarity. He traveled the US in a van with his dog. He loved his dog dearly. He called her mom, since the time she had puppies in his van. One song about his little friend is an instrumental, in a classical music style. Utilizing a computer in a new way, being able to expand his reach as a one man orchestra.Bette-Joan Rac acclaimed classical pianist, now teaching performance an musical history, through the University of Toronto Royal Academy of Music, is finishing a book. In "The da Vinci Of Our Time, she says "I felt Bobby should be known as classical musics 5th B. I was very glad Ed Pinset of London's Sound Projector Magazine, picked him as one of the 4 American Monster Geniuses Of Avant-Garde Music. On the front cover of the book Valis, Rolling Stone Magazine said Philip K. Dick is "THE MOST BRILLIANT SF MIND ON ANY PLANET." Some are blogging Bobby's 1972 Axonda album is exactly like Valis, which was published in 1981. Actually Bobby had predicted much of it as a boy, an went far beyond Valis. Brown even predicted what the next physics will be, an how it will produce The Enlightening beam Of Axonda. I think he's one of the most important musicians, and visionary thinkers of today.

"Thus die all traitors."
Format: Hardcover
At a grand 504 pages, this big book covers the Crimson Empire series in its entirety. Containing the first, second, and third mini-series as well as Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil, Dark Horse Extra #21-24 "Hard Currency", and Dark Horse Presents #1 "Third Time Pays for All". While some of these stories truly pale in comparison to the original series, they all still form a big story that is collected in this book. Slightly smaller than a regular TPB, this hardcover edition looks nice with a dustjacket (although mine was very off-center) but utilizes a glued binding on this thick book so you lose a bit to gutter loss. The first story in the book is the classic Crimson Empire series. The six-issue series is collected here in full with a truly timeless story by Randy Stradley and Mike Richardson. Paul Gulacy did the awesome art within the issues. The writing and art work well together with the vibration of the blades to the movie-like, choreographed 12-page fight scene between Kanos and Jax at the end. A truly epic tale with lots of action and mystery that made you feel like you were watching another Star Wars movie but condensed into six issues of a comic book! This alone is worth the purchase price but you get even more stories after this! Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil follows the Crimson Empire in a tale following Kir Kanos after the end of the Crimson Empire series and was the third issue in the Bounty Hunters series. Kir becomes the bounty hunter Kenix Kil to move through a bounty hunter-filled planet and get what he needs and get out alive! Javier Saltares did the penciling while Randy Stradley reprised his role for the story. The story's short but tells a bit more about Kir and his journey. The drawings, while not as good as the first series, look good enough to get the story across. Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood is next directly following the first series as Kir Kanos, as Kenix Kil, continues his quest to destroy what's left of the traitorous Imperial leaders. However, the return of an old friend side-tracks his quest and brings him to an even bigger journey! The old writing team of Mike Richardson and Randy Stradley return in this story as well as the original artist Paul Gulacy. The art's great and the story, though a bit dense, works well. There isn't quite as much action this time around but the story's just as good. The Zanzibar creatures are one of the creepiest things you'll ever see in a Star Wars comic, too! Next up is the very short four-part comic entitled Hard Currency that appeared in Dark Horse Extra #21-24. The comic is written by Randy Stradley so you know the writing's done well but the art is by Isaas Buckminister Owens and is one God-awful mess. The characters are horribly out of proportion and it looks extremely cartoony. It's very, very short with only a few pages but even if you get past the art, the comic reads like a calendar with the book turned on its side. So, the whole process of reading this out of a 500+ page book is just annoying. I know they probably couldn't print it any other way but it's still inconvenient. However, what you get is a neat story wrapping up the fate of a character that has ran through the first two series and a bit more about Kir's alter ego Kenix Kil. Unlisted, the book appears to start with the third main series but actually contains an 8-page prequel comic that originally appeared in Dark Horse Presents #1 entitled The Third Time Pays for All. The writing has Randy Stradley again and, thankfully, Paul Gulacy on art duty (although his other works here were better). Once again, a short glimpse into the life of (a newly outfitted) Kenix Kil on a bounty-hunting mission while he reminisces about his past run-ins with Mirith Sinn. Mike, Randy and Paul continue their work with the Crimson Empire III: Empire Lost where Kir Kanos rejoins Mirith Sinn one last time to thwart an Imperial thug from destroying the New Republic and the New Empire in one fell swoop! Leia, Luke, Han, and Chewie appear in this tale as well as Boba Fett to round out a classic cast. The art's great, once again, and the writing, while probably my least favorite of the series, is still pretty good with an epic fight between Kir and Devian. At the end of the book, we get the Crimson Empire Handbook entries on some of the characters as well as a few more covers to gawk at. While this hardcover book looks really nice, Dark Horse still fails to make a truly great edition for this series through the book itself. The contents are great but the small size and lack of comic covers are disappointing. Sadly, that's just how Dark Horse releases their hardcovers and TPBs. But, if you're looking to read the Crimson Empire books, this is the one to get!

A sensasional collection for starters in the saga of Superman
Format: Kindle
Robert Venditti and Paul Pelletier deliver a solid volume of Superman Stories, aided by other talents in the art department, but this is a mostly Venditti a Pelletier gig, and many of these ar the best sigles stories of the character in a long time. A back to basics approach for rhe character, and continuity free.

Classic Superman is back!
Format: Paperback
This is classic Superman through and through. Venditti has an understanding of the character that will be refreshing for longtime Superman fans—especially those tired of the evil or edgy Superman tropes that have been overdone in recent years. He gets why Superman is a compelling character BECAUSE he is an overpowered boy scout—not in spite of it. This is good wholesome fun for everyone without any sort of targeted political commentary (rare in today’s comic scene). The stories are mostly self-contained with some overarching themes and some running jokes that I really enjoyed. Please give this man a chance to write Superman’s main series and turn that ship around. Venditti knows what he’s doing.
