Lost and Found

Good music and bad movies, either can get lost. If you’re a musician or film maker who managed to lose your work, don’t give up hope. Lost items have been turning up everywhere lately.

Last August came word that the Clash’s long lost ‘Vanilla Tapes’ had been found. Long believed to have been left behind on the tube by a drunken roadie, they were discovered in stoage by Clash guitarist Mick Jones (I hope someone apologized to the roadie).

Then last week a briefcase full of lyrics, stolen from U2 was discovered in an attic and returned to the band.

And now comes word that Ed Wood’s long lost final film has been rediscovered. The late Ed Wood earned fame for how bad his work was, and his work became cult classings such as Plan 9 From Outer Space and Glen or Glenda?. Certainly fans will be eager to see Necromania, Ed’s adult movie about a couple seeking assistance with their sex life from a coven of witches – or maybe we’re not ready for it.
