Bee-Gee's Fever- Catch it!


I never got the fever although i didn't mind the brothers Gibb. Years later my teenage son would start playing BeeGee's records loudly, I guess that's how you rebel against parents who still listen to GWAR.





We live in sad "Dog earless" times people.

No Mr Bond, I expect you to get down tonight



This is the only remaining photo of MGM's planned Disco era James Bond film "Mirror Ball" which was halted days into production, sadly the world would never know the pleasure of Adrian Zmed's 007.

Carnival Toys 1979




Carnival was the premier maker of toy musical instruments in the late 1970s. Their main focus was toy guitars and licensing, making sure they slapped the hottest acs of the time on their guitars (even when they primarily known for disco tunes).



So join KISS, the Village People, Hulk and Spider-man (!), the Bee Gees, Shaun Cassidy on a mystical, musical adventure.

It takes a village (people)


Forgive my ignorance on the matter but who was the lead guitar for the village people? Is it Glen the biker or the construction worker whose name escapes me.

Also, who was lead tambourine?

The Ultimate Star Trek Shirt


This smiling "autographed" picture of Leonard Nimoy is believed to be from a series of store appearances promoting not toys but what I have deemed the most incredible piece of Star Trek merchandise ever. 

What follows after the jump is madness, be warned.

Break Up of the Brothers Superfine

With Julius getting transferred to Dallas, Barry searched desperately for a new wing man for his conquests. Maurice was eager enough but Barry soon found that his underlying creepiness kept people away like an open sewer.

Village People or James Bond?


What a tough choice kids had in 1979, smooth as glass spy James Bond or those "Whacky" Village People? In 1979 it was an honest dilemma, now those pictures look like different sections of an adult video store.

"I'd get the biker son, he looks tough, that Roger Moore is a cissy!"


Please tell me that at least one of my readers wore the "Glenn" and is willing to share photographs...

Dracula Gets Down

I can't believe it took me two years to notice this wonderful picture from the 1982 Don Post Catalog, I'm guessing it had been taken a couple of years earlier. If you google "Halloween in the 70s" this should be the first thing that pops up.
Dracula is seen here clearly living the high life, pissing away the royalties from all his merchandise and film remakes. His agent Nosferatu, seen in the background, is currently booking Drac as the October co-host on the Mike Douglas Show.
