Still got my "Big Bambu" album but sadly the massive cigarette paper in the sleeve went "up in smoke" years ago.

 

Is that the one that has the south sea saga..."Buggery on the High Seas??? LOL..

 

Rockey hit it with Los Cochinos


My favorite ...

Dave? Dave?

"Buggery On The High Seas", with Derek Manhold and Chuck U. Farley (Pedro And Man At The Drive-In) starts at 8:50.

How about Sister Mary Elephant???

 

I used to have "The Wedding Album"....
I wonder whatever happened to it???

 

Yep, looks like the same car. Indy Goodguys last year. Wonder if that paint is all still 30 plus years old. Looks like they lost the stance, lost the side pipes and added a roll bar.

I liked it better as a Street Freak!

 

Fits well here too.

The book R. Crumb - Conversations is full of such morsels.

 

I knew it was around here somewhere, just couldn't find the right book. I've spent way too much money over the years buying his sketchbooks and anything else of his that I could lay my hands on.

 

Dig his work! For more,here's his website http://www.rcrumb.com/

It's Fritz The Cat! A self-centered and hedonistic anthropomorphic feline con artist, lacking both morals and ethics, who frequently goes on wild adventures that sometimes involve sexual escapades.

My cat's the same way.... Every time he steps out for the evening...
No wonder why he sleeps all day.... 'cause he's out getting some every night...

Born in 1970, this is what I was subjected to since day 1. It's had a lasting effect. Awesome link!

 

I had this album, along with Big Bambu. I can't remember if this was a sleeve inside the album cover or when you opened the cover like a book and this was inside. Wonder why I can't remember??

 

The Milwaukee Art Museum had a Comics exhibit, laid out like a walk through history of comics; R. Crumb was part of it. What was cool is that the exhibit showed some of his little freaky animal sketches on line notebook paper.

 

I had that one also.... Last time I seen it was '75.. I think???

 

yep i like it better as a street freak also

 

Spotted a survivor recently,

 

My good buddy in the early '70s had a Caddy like this one. Lot of good times in that car, picking up chicks, smokin' weed, drinkin', and a few chemical adventures. He called it "The White Cloud".

 

Man looking back from today, everyone in the '70s looked like scumbags. I didn't hit Teensville till '82 but I was there in the '70s and I remember seeing ALL of this. Except a girl grabbing a guys dong. Didn't see that happen.

 

Who you callin' a scumbag???...

 

Probably best you not confess you were checking out dongs as a kid.... it just dont sound right.

 

That wo0ulda been a nice car to have in the seventies .... woulda traded my Vega for something like that.

 

This thread was great in the beginning but has now lost it's way and has has jumped the shark....taken over by post whores

 

Said the '80s kid...

 

Really? Read the whole thread jackass and show us the cars you were working on in the 70's instead of just hyping the things that were going on in the "70s" era like I did. I understand you are older than me and I wasn't even referring to you or singling you out so no reason for you to quote me in an attempt to belittle me. My point was this thread was clearly about the cars and associated events but has has clearly lost it's way. You were there but this isn't a sex, drugs, and rock n roll forum....post some automotive info for the youngsters and get this thread back on track.

 

Oh the memories... if only I had a scanner.
