savage did only headache ep, as far as i know

He did a bunch of other stuff 'round that time too though - interesting guy. I wonder what he's up to now.

Last I looked, Edwin was still writing for The Wire.

he is. In fact, here's a review he wrote for a release by the PRF's very own honeyisfunny;

when I wrote this, I thought y'all were talking about the headache ep.

I'd just woken up, basically.

"Big Black/Songs About Fucking (1987)
The pictures on the album jacket are quoted from Japanese X-rated graphic novel "The Rapeman" (written by Keiko Aizaki, drawn by Shintaro Miyawaki)."

Steve, help

Hmmm, I'd always thought that Steve did the SAF drawings... I recall him doing artwork for other bands around that time... The first Breaking Circus ep, etc. Am I crazy?

The "Songs About Fucking" artwork was all lifted from Japanese comics. I don't remember which ones.

I did most of the other Big Black artwork, not including the Savage Pencil drawing (Edwin is about the nicest guy on earth and super funny), some artwork for other bands, inc. Breaking Circus, Rifle Sport and a couple others.

I don't know where the artwork is. Probably in the basement of Touch and Go.

Edwin Pouncey... wot a great name!

The story in Forced Exposure he tells about dressing up as a Dalek literally made me laugh out loud.

Was there a special edition cover of SAF? I seem to recall reading somewhere that Jello Biafra was given a special edition copy for some reason, maybe as a sign of solidarity in the face of the obscenity trial the Dead Kennedys went through in re the Giger insert in Frankenchrist.

If there was such an 'edition,' what was on the cover?

I suppose this is a question for Steve.

He may have been thinking of "Headache," for which there were both normal and grotesque covers.
