I posted a week or so ago about the brilliant Ray Caesar, who seems to be generating a lot of interest with his computer generated artwork.
Well if you click here you can visit the Jonathan Levine Gallery who are currently exhibiting Caesar's work.

Survivors - The Complete Series 1 [1975]
An apocalyptic virus wipes out nearly every human on the planet. How will the Survivors cope with the end of civilisation? (*****)Blake's 7 - Series 3
Possibly the best of all 4 series. Series 3 pulls out all the stops.Blake's 7 - Series 2
When the BBC brought back the surprise sci-fi hit, they pumped in more money. And it shows. Kitsch, camp, quirky, intelligent, witty, daring and just bloody brilliant. The return of the Liberator and crew. Review (*****)Blake's 7 - Series 1 [1978]
The greatest sci-fi series ever is now on DVD. Forget the cheapness of the whole affair and just wallow in perfection. Blake's 7 should be the benchmark by which all TV sci-fi should be judged. Review (*****)The Prisoner [1967]
Trapped in a village sealed off from the outside world, with no one he can trust. How will he escape? Large weather balloons. Penny farthing badges. The cult series that defined 60s cool in one set. (****)Indiana Jones Trilogy Box Set
The greatest movie action hero of all time? I think so. And you will too when you watch this superb trilogy. (*****)Farscape: Complete Season 1 (Box Set) [1999]
Culty sci-fi series with Henson creatures. (****)Star Wars Trilogy (Episodes IV-VI)
The original 3. Classics, one and all. The Death Star. Chewbacca. Obi Wan. Luke, Han & Leia. Lightsabers. The Millenium Falcon. Yoda. R2-D2 & C-3PO. The ultimate sci-fi epic fantasy series. (*****)The Godfather Trilogy
Coppola's mafia family saga. Two of the greatest films ever made. Epic. Violent. First class acting. De Niro. Brando. Pacino. Caan. Duvall. Keaton. Shire. A horse's head. (*****)
On the Wheel of Steel
Urban Hymns
Solid gold classic. An essential album for any collection. (*****)12"/80's
As good as I remember it. The 80's are back. Buy this if you are curious as to what great music was like back then. (*****)Hopes and Fears
Sublime. Perfection. I cannot praise this debut album highly enough. A major new talent. (*****)Ultimate Kylie
All the hits from 87-05. The Pocket Venus at her very best. (*****)Mystery White Boy
The unique and incomparable Jeff Buckley. (*****)Hits Collection
White Queen of Soul. Incomparable. Brilliant. (*****)The Very Best of Billie Holiday
A lovely intro to Lady Day. (*****)Love Angel Music Baby
It's a good solo debut for Stefani, but not great. 'What You Waiting For?' and the latter half of the album are the strongest tracks here. (****)A Rush of Blood to the Head
Moodier than Parachutes, but just as good. (*****)The Best of John Lee Hooker
A great entry point into the world of the blues. Best listened to on a sultry evening with a light breeze and a refreshing drink. (*****)The Queen Is Dead
The GREATEST album of the 80's? Genius. (*****)Songs from the Last Century
An unusual change of direction. He should have done more like this. Really showcases Michael's singing talent. (*****)Atomic : The Very Best of Blondie

I love this. Bell does Bernstein. An innovative take on West Side Story. (*****)Parachutes
