Parallel Lines $4.55 Until 1978, Blondie was perceived mostly as a ’60s-referencing, British-Invasion-meets-girl-groups band. With veteran producer Mike Chapman at the helm for their third album, though, everything changed for this group bred from the New York punk scene. Honing in on Blondie’s strongest points–Deborah Harry’s come-hither vocals and Clem Burke’s powerhouse drumming–Chapman helped recast the band to … |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – The Original Movie [VHS] $6.25 You can chalk it up to good timing and a heavy dose of video-game synergy, but this 1990 hit remains the box-office champ of independent films, with a total gross of $135 million.

A History of Painting: The British Genius V7 $29.64 1911. In Eight Volumes. Illustrated with 200 plates. With Preface by Frank Brangwyn. The volumes in this series comprise a general survey of the history of painting by looking at the dominant figures of the time and studying how art developed towards the end of the nineteenth century. Macfall writes in the foreword: In these pages I have simply written of the greater men of genius who have contributed to the art of painting; and I have touched upon their more famous works rather than attempted an exhaustive list of all their endeavor, the which has no value except to the dealer in antiques. The volumes are an attempt to place before the ordinary man the chief achievement of the years in the Art of Painting; and to hint at something of the real significance of that achievement. The Contents of this volume are divided into the following groups: The British Genius Before the Coming of Van Dyck; 1500; The British Genius Subject to Van Dyck-1600; and The British Genius Finds Voice-1700 and 1750. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger Publishing. |
