I haven’t had the time to generate actual content…
…so please accept this scan of a Linda Ronstadt book from 1978 in its stead:
I currently have this up on the eBay, so I’m using this as an excuse to plug my eBay auctions, I guess.
Oh, this does remind me, I did recently list some other music-related magazines that may be of interest to funnybook fans, such as these issues of the music ‘zine Who Put the Bomp. Issue #7 from 1971 has a cover by underground comics artist George Hansen:
…while #9 from 1972 has a cover by another underground cartoonist, Jay Kinney:
Later the mag shortened its name to Bomp and went to slick color covers, such as this one for #18 from 1978 by William Stout:
Also, I’ll put up actual scans of those first two Bomps here when I get a chance…the digital photos didn’t work as well as I thought they would.
So there you go…I started off claiming there would be no content, and lo, there was content. Just how do I do it? I must be some kind of miracle worker.
More stuff tomorrow, pals.
A Linda Ronstadt and BOMP post? You live in a very special, private world, sir. Please don’t ever stop sharing with us.
$3.95 in 1978?
That would be nearly $14.50 in today’s money!

Ah, ’70s Linda Rondstadt… the woman who broke George Lucas.
That 1978 Bomp… the guy with the guitar is a dead ringer for Tony Blair.
“70s Linda Rondstadt… the woman who broke George
Lucas”
so SHE’S at fault for PHANTOM MENACE?
1978 Linda Rondstadt?
Deal.
