Revisited: "Sniff"

Today's Revisited comes from 2009 (again), and concerns music and art. Unfortunately, some of the links are no longer valid.

"Sniff" 

There's a band from England called Sniff 'n' The Tears. You may not have heard of them. In fact, I'd be really surprised if you know who the hell I'm talking about.

And unless you've been following my blog for that long, you still probably haven't heard of them. Until now. Still one of my favorite bands.

I also linked a particular image from that collection, which, sadly, no longer seems to be available. Still, lots of other great paintings there. Including at least some of the album covers.

I knew I should have bought that print of Red Riding Hood and the Wolf when I had the chance. Dammit.
