Justin Green

Justin Considine Green,that legendary Underground Cartoonist and artist, performs a song that describes what he considers his real career,also covered in his book, "The Sign Game" from Last Gasp. He'll also be prominently featured in the upcoming "Sign Painters" movie and book. (Check out the "Sign Painters" documentary official trailer on You Tube). This performance was at Shake It Records in Cincinnati's Northside neighborhood, during the "Out of the Underground" exhibit retrospective of Green's career. Justin is best known for "Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary," considered the first autobiographical comic. He also did the "Musical Legends Comix" for Pulse!, the former Tower Records monthly magazine, writes for "Sign of The Times" magazine, and did the cover art for "Play it Like You Did Back to George Street," an anthology of Cincinnati blues. Someone put this video on youtube a while back but it was inexplicably removed. Fortunately, I downloaded it, with somewhat of a reduction in quality. Enjoy(especially his work on the twelve-string guitar).
