Alan Aldridge Ordine dei libri (cronologico)
Alan Aldridge fu un artista, graphic designer e illustratore britannico il cui stile catturò perfettamente lo spirito della sua epoca. Il suo lavoro per Penguin Books, inclusa una serie di copertine di libri di fantascienza, e il suo coinvolgimento nell'identità visiva dei Beatles e di Apple Corps definirono lo stile grafico degli anni '60 e '70. Le sue creazioni erano caratterizzate da uno stile fluido e cartoonesco e da un morbido uso dell'aerografo, in sintonia con l'estetica psichedelica dell'epoca. Le sue opere più celebrate includono illustrazioni per 'The Butterfly Ball and the Grasshopper Feast' e la copertina dell'album di Elton John 'Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy'.

THE BEATLES ILLUSTRATED LYRICS were first published in two separate volumes in 1969 and 1971. Artist Alan Aldridge's aim was to capture the essence of the Beatles' appeal and to present a book which was as entertaining to the eye and the imagination as their music is to the ear. He succeeded and the result was a stunning collection of colour illustrations by some of the most famous artists of the time. Surreal and psychedelic, the lyrics and illustrations reflect the mood of the 60s, and show what an immense influence the greatest band of all time had on the style of their generation and those that followed. This new collector's hardback edition retains all the style of the original and is a must for any Beatles' fan or anyone interested in design or the social history of the 60s. Contributors include Clive Arrowsmith, David Bailey, Mel Calman, David Hockney, Ronald Searle, Peter Max, Ralph Steadman and many more...

Band 1 In den Smoky Mountains, fern der Zivilisation, wohnt tief im unberührten Wald der Gnole Fungel. Gnole sehen ein bisschen aus wie Maulwürfe, sind außergewöhnlich intelligent und besitzen Zauberkräfte. Fungels paradiesische Welt wird von den Menschen und ihren Baumaschinen bedroht. Es muß etwas geschehen, denn schon beginnt die mechanische Blechwelt die Seele der Waldwesen zu vergiften. Im Traum sieht Fungel den sagenhaften Stein Baphomet, der in der Lage sein soll, die Erde zu verwüsten. Mutig und unerschrocken macht sich Fungel auf die Suche. Er muß Baphomet finden, bevor der mächtige Theverat sich seiner bemächtigt und für immer die Herrschaft über die Natur an sich reißt. Band 2 Auf der Suche nach dem Stein wird Fungel von der Polizei aufgegriffen und in die Stadt gebracht. Eine unglaubliche Odyssee durch Behörden und Institutionen beginnt, gefolgt von Flucht- und Rettungsversuchen. Als Fungel endlich den Stein Baphomet findet hat er auch den Dämon Theverat auf den Fersen. In seiner größten Verzweiflung ruft Fungel den Feuergeist Salamander an, der mit seinen Flammen alles verzehrt - Fungel ist bereit, mit dem Stein zu sterben.
Fungel
Im Reich der Menschen
