Playboy After Dark: Grand Funk Railroad, 12-03-1969

Mark, Don, & Mel!

More Hugh Hefner party weirdness surrounding the music, as Grand Funk Railroad showcases two songs from their yet-to-be multi-platinum-selling 2nd. album on this late-night TV show.
(Mr. Limousine Driver  was eventually cut due to time allowance and released on their CD as a bonus track.)

Tunes: "Mr. Limousine Driver" and "Please Don`t Worry"

Playboy After Dark: Deep Purple 10-23-1968

Original (9 months together),1968 band with Ian Paice, Jon Lord, Nick Simper, Ritchie Blackmore, Rod Evans
Tunes: And The Address, Hush

This show, outside of Hefner's Ts & A and bullshit guests, showcased some very good bands from jazz to R&R. Most, like this one here, were infants in the business.

This was all fantasy made in a Hollywood studio. There was no real elevator guest who came out to look like it was going to a rooftop Playboy party.

Kane and his weapon

Who knew that Kane was an underrated badass?
It's a small "laser pistol" or EVA sidearm on his hip while exploring the derelict ship on LV-426.

Motherly Love

Motherly love
(Come on, get it now)
Motherly love
Forget about
The brotherly and other-ly love
Motherly love
Is just the thing for you
You know your mother's gonna love ya
'Til ya don't know what to do

__Frank Zappa

Aliens Playing Cards with Collectible Coin

I own a set of these playing cards. Friends and I've played poker with them many times. They're well-made and well-played.

This deck features some very cool Giger-inspired custom artwork.
Coin is very cool, also.
The collectible coin is almost 2 inches round, made of solid brass, and decorated with a colorful enamel paint finish and intricately detailed aliens.
Also, I like that they included two cards in the deck that you can combine to make one larger image of the Nostromo.

I captured this a few minutes ago while watching "Superior Firepower: Making of Aliens (2003)", Lance  Henriksen talked about having double-pupil contacts made up for his part.
Cameron says the effect was too frightening for the film and decided not to go with it.

Two Pupils... YES or NO?
