1977 is the year of the punk movement's enormous productivity, the moment was characterized by a huge musical and aesthetic impact with its epicenter in London. '77 is recounted through a detailed chronicle that day by day reminds you of the sensational news events -- often out of proportion -- by the British scandal press, the countless record releases, shows, books, fanzines, and reviews in the leading Anglo-Saxon music magazines. The publication is a very rich almanac enriched by a collection of anecdotes generously told to the author, Matteo Torcinovich, by those who lived through that era firsthand. Musicians, writers, photographers such as Gaye Black of the Adverts, legendary Roxy Club founder Andrew Czezowski, Ana da Silva of the Raincoats, photographer Peter Gravelle, Lora Logic of X-Ray Spex, journalist Kris Needs, and many more... 1977 - Don't Call It Punk provides research and insight that will guide you through an explosive artistic/musical mix generated in this period. 20x25; 496 pages with pictures and illustrations; text: English/Italian.

Goodfellas present Buy Or Die! Ralph Records Artworks 1972-2015, the first ever book of its kind on the history of the artwork of The Residents and their label Ralph Records. The life of Ralph Records and The Residents has always been cloaked in obscure mysteries, woven by the anonymous Cryptic Corporation, around which many luminaries have revolved; painters, graphic artists, cartoonists, musicians, film-makers, and writers. All have been channeled together by a powerful creative synergy that helped champion a new, mercurial and thoroughly multi-faceted artifact. Buy Or Die!, for the very first time, brings together a collection of images that represented the sounds of Ralph from 1972 to the present. A historical journey that traces the path of one of the most innovative record labels of the last fifty years. A collection of original, rare, and remarkable images drawn from record covers, fan catalogs, posters, and a wide variety of promotional material, demonstrating the technological and stylistic adaptations undergone through the arc of half a century. 400-page color book in English and Italian.
