There are also J.Edward Oliver's ( a classmate of Mick Jagger's) Pop comics that appeared in UK music papers from 1970-77. Very dense with obscure musical and culutral references. The first few years worth of strips are viewable here (under 'episode guide'). http://www.jeoliver.co.uk/
Playboy's 'Little Annie Fannie' from 1965. This usually impeccably researched strip bungled big time by mixing up the names of 3 of the 4 Beatles.
Hi & Lois strip from 2010 featuring Amanda Shires. Here's how it happened, according to Amanda: 'Greg Walker, who writes the strip, was at a show and he didn’t have money for a CD, so I just gave him one. A few months later he wrote me an e-mail saying, “I really apologize. I just lost track of it and totally skipped on sending you your money. But I got you one better. Check the newspaper on February 19.”'
On a more serious, though not quite unrelated note... A violin can have a place in a punk band, as The Stooges demonstrated towards the end of their lightest number, We Will Fall. If you play your cards right, so can a fiddle. See also: The Velvet Underground & Nico White Light/White Heat And now back to your regularly scheduled humor & jocularity.
That'd be a lot funnier if the US albums had actually been reissued on vinyl in the past twenty years. Or on CD in the 80s. Maybe they should have used "With The Beatles" instead?
is there a complete list of the Mutts panels that were based on album covers? I know he has some on his website
