How many shades of epic is this photo? This is the album art work from 10CC’s ‘Deceptive Bends’.
It’s the genius work of Hipgnosis, the same guys that did the cover art for ‘Dark Side of the Moon’, ‘Houses of the Holy’, ‘Electric Warrior’ et al. My parents had this record, and when I was a kid wondered if the guy in the dive-suit was saving the lady or abducting her. From memory, it worried me. I also remember the album art didn’t match the music (the single from this was The Things We do For Love).
Anyway, I just wanted you to look at it and think, “Wow. That’s fifteen different shades of epic.”

Anyone else really worried about Le Mozz? What happened? What’s wrong? No bueno, man. I hope it’s just his sugar or something…
I’ve got a feeling he’s just fine. I would have pretended to collapse on stage after about the third dude jumped up and hugged me. Fuck that for a lark.
Swine flu? Who said Swine flu? I didn’t say anything about Swine flu. Stop spreading rumors, guy.
Nows the time to get that ‘There is a Light…’ tattoo you’ve been talking about doing since the first time you went to Sway.
We’re trying make light of all this because we’re legitimately freaked. Get well Mozz.

That’s it for today. We’ve got the painters in… the literal painters… and I’ve got my period. See you tomorrow Fatty.
