        Not unconnectedly, my second-best Christmas present was a copy of
_Elric at the End of Time_ in big format with illustrations by Rodney
Matthews. Which kicks arse anyway, but one of the illustrations is of the
band that briefly features, and though the members all appear to be
goblins and aliens, the line-up is kind of suggestive - drummer,
four-string player dead centre, stage left a creature playing a
double-necked twelve/six-string and stage right a Vorlon-like thing
playing a double-barreled saxophone or something very much like it. Small
gnome/Mekon-like creature sitting in a booth twiddling knobs... Is
Mr. Matthews a fan or did someone just show him a picture? :-) Yours,
                                                                      Jon
ObCD: Hawkwind - _Atomhenge '76_
