I'll trade my Horkey's for EMEKs...
They are both amazing, totally different styles, and by far two of the most talented artists creating art right now...

Oh, yeah, I didn't interpret it that way. I mean, you compared dude to Jimi, probably the best thing you can say about someone. I just thought it would be a fun discussion...but I felt like such a fanboy nerd that I dropped it.

I dunno. I could listen to Jimi do that acoustic solo "Hear My Train A'Comin" all damn day. Jimi could have stood on his own, and all the suporting players behind him, even guys like Buddy Miles, were always secondary.

In this case, don't forget about the Burlesque crew always stepping it up and actually pulling off these prints. It takes more than just Horkey to get these things on paper.

Or, maybe that makes Burlesque an Eddie Kramer to Horkey's Jimi. I dunno. the more I type the more I think it's stupid to belabor this point.

I agree with some points, but I own most horkey's and my favorite by the man was not printed by BoNA

if you want one dont be too hasty. patience. ben already said the artist edition is larger than the show edition...so that tells you BoNA will be selling them soon enough.

Ugh, $250. Burlesque will probably sell it for what, $50-60? Regardless, that one eBay moron is gonna mess it up for all of us in the secondary market.

The show edition is only 68 which makes it pricey, guess the artist will hit 150 - 200.
