BFD (distributed
by The Orchard) is pleased to announce that it will release the all new highly
anticipated Beatles documentary IT WAS FIFTY YEARS AGO TODAY! THE
BEATLES: SGT. PEPPER & BEYOND on VOD & DVD across the USA on September

From the Emmy nominated director of Monty
Python: Almost The Truth, Alan G. Parker (Rebel Truce: The Story
of The Clash, Hello Quo, Never Mind the Sex Pistols, Who Killed Nancy) and
produced by Reynold D’Silva and Alexa Morris, the film features
incredible rare archival footage unseen since the 1960s. The film also features
rare interviews with The Beatles’ original drummer Pete Best, John
Lennon’s sister Julia Baird, Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein’s secretary Barbara
O’Donnell, Steve Diggle of the Buzzcocks, Beatles associate Tony
Bramwell, Pattie Boyd’s sister Jenny Boyd, Hunter Davies, Simon
Napier-Bell, Ray Connolly, Bill Harry, Philip Norman, Steve Turner, Andy
Peebles, Freda Kelly and The Merseybeats.
IT WAS FIFTY YEARS AGO TODAY! THE BEATLES: SGT. PEPPER & BEYOND
examines the year 1967, the year that would
arguably be the most crucial in the band’s career, a year in which they stopped
being the world’s number one touring band and instead became the world’s most
innovative recording artists, pushing the boundaries of what could be achieved
in the studio. Unable to hear themselves perform and mired by controversy, the
band decided to stop touring in August 1966. What followed was a period of
extreme creativity and rebirth during which they embraced Swinging London, the
‘avant-garde’, LSD and the advent of the Summer Of Love. The result was the
creation of their new alter ego, Sgt. Pepper, with the desire to create a pop
music first, the concept album.
A devoted fan since the age of nine, the
film’s director Alan G. Parker has set out to explore this period by
filming interviews with former employees, fellow musicians, family member and
journalists, all of whom were there at the time. These stories are in turn
supported by a vast array of impressive archival footage, much of it not seen
since first transmission. The result is a detailed examination of why the band
stopped touring, how the album was conceived and its recording at EMI's Abbey
Road Studios, its lyrics, the creation of its sleeve and finally its release.
All this is set against a background of the band’s changing relationship with
their manager, Brian Epstein and the tragedy of his death, the creation of
Apple and the powerful influence of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
Director Alan G. Parker said: “We’re
combining first-hand accounts of the events that allowed ‘Sgt. Pepper’ to
happen with rare and unseen footage that we’ve forensically unearthed from
mainstream archives and private collectors. The last days of touring.... the
execution of the album.... and the aftermath that it left behind will, I hope,
give the audience an intimate sense of the band, the time and the impact of
this extraordinary album”.
Thank you so much for this!One

Each year, Scoop photographer and internet DJ Mike Solof travels to a
number of comic book conventions, including Comic-Con International: San
Diego, to take pictures of the creators, publishers, retailers, fans,
exhibitors, panelists and even the architecture at the show. In 2004,
Solof started interviewing some of his subjects.
(excerpt)
Scoop: What's your weirdest inspiration for a story?
GP: I was doing Crimson Plague and I had a certain idea of the
power, like Aliens deadly blood and the model I was working with asked
me what happens when she menstruates and the entire series took on a
different tone from that point on.
Scoop: If you could change one word,
one line, one moment, one story or one piece of artwork that you've
done, what would that be?
GP: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band the comic adaptation of the movie. I would have said no! Wipe that off the face of the earth.
Here's some pixs from the Pittsburgh show
sent to me by Mark Mcintosh, Mark is holding up a copy of the ultra
rare Sgt Pepper Lonely Heart Club Band Comic Penciled by George.

Oh, you know what? I found out, George, that we have a caller on the
line who would like to ask you a question. Ed, let's bring on Mark from
Ohio.
Mark: Hi George, I got something that's gonna scare the crap out of you. Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Dutch version.
George: You actually HAVE a version of that book?
Mark: Yeah, we met at Pittsburgh, I showed you the original pages to Sgt Pepper.
George:
And I've signed original pieces of artworks. I've never, to this day,
have seen published version of the book. And I'm sorry for whatever
it's doing to your eyeballs right now.
Mark: Oh, Mooney just butchered it up. But, I was very happy to get it. Are you going to be in Pittsburgh.
George: Oh, I'm always at Pittsburgh.
Mark: Okay, I just wanted to make sure, because I can't wait to scare you.
George:
Believe me, I'm dying to see it. I'm actually past the point that the
blister is still sore. So, I'm actually curious to see what this book.
You probably have the rarest of vintage artwork you can find.
George:
The official website is run by a man named Vu Nguyen. He actually
started it before I even knew about it. I've been so flattered by his
dedication on running this website, which is now going for six years.
Hey, I don't have to do anything for it. I'm such a lazy person.
I found a Sgt. Pepper movie adaptation
magazine-style book with, non other, than Mr George Perez doing art with
inks by "I will shoot him when I meet him" Jim Mooney. This is the
"Holy Grail" of books, George has supposedly never signed a copy ! You
heard it fan boyz, never signed a copy of this only released in Europe
book ! I also have a page of original art from the book, scored many
moons ago from bad ass Tim and signed by both George and (shitty inker)
Jim Mooney so eat your hearts out posers ! I da MAN.
