LSD ARCHIVE

Obtaining additional art for this site has proven difficult. It requires that one held onto flyers from three decades ago; knows their location (what box in what dim recess of one's attic, basement, garage); and excavates, scans, and (very critical) sends them to me. That's more than I'd ask of a close friend, let alone someone I hadn't spoken to in 25 years, or in some cases, had never met. Many requests went unanswered; some that were answered went unfulfilled. And some who responded said, with regret, that their collection had been disposed of — to save space, to purge bad memories, or because it had been converted into a mouse condo.

Leather Studded Diaphraghm's Eric Gladstone not only preserved his collection of band-related promos, but he most generously scanned and uploaded them for my discretionary use. I had formatted the band pages to accommodate up to 8 flyers; more than adequate, given most have one or two. Gladstone provided roughly 80 pieces — more art than I have for all other bands in aggregate. Thus this auxilliary LSD page for your enjoyment. While some material dates to the early 90s, Gladstone's style is consistent enough to fairly categorize his work under the 80s banner. Viewing its content is a history lesson in itself.
