BEAT IT! by Julia Gorton and Rick Brown (signed)

Julia Gorton and RIck Brown poured their music obsessions into this short-lived but beautifully designed and pithy zine that puts you right in the moment. Thrill! To the first Pere Ubu records. Remember! When punk was transforming at lightning speed into post-punk and other mutant variations! Immerse yourself! In a time when genre distinctions mattered less than the weird sounds emanating from a beat-up turntable. 150 + pages can, and will, be yours. Soon enough! ANDREA FELDMAN

This compilation (45+ years in the making) includes additional archival graphics, and essays by Julia and Rick about the genesis and the production of Beat It!

Great for anyone interested in New York music in the late seventies, no wave band interviews and reviews, band photography and portraiture, collage layouts, old school production information, DIY aesthetics and zine histories.

First printing is 300 copies. 152 PAGES, FULL COLOR THROUGHOUT, this copy is signed by the photographer and publisher Julia Gorton. Pristine copy!
