N° 2540
Rock Dreams deals in images and obsession: Rock 'n' Roll romances. Airbrushed, weird-fantasy images of everyone, from The Who to Johnny Cash, The Beatles to Chuck Berry. The Rolling Stones are depicted as Nazi paedophiles, seducing a group of girls around the piano in leather boots and bondage gear. James Brown is imagined as a pimp hero, hanging out in his leather-lined convertible with young boys from Harlem.
