"Miles Plays Miles" ( Inks on 12" X 24" cold press illustration board ) per the Future-Primitif Rhythmic Zone was done as an album cover for the legendary jazz icon Miles Davis in 1975 by Prof. Onli. He & Miles could reach positive business terms so Onli refused to allow Miles to use it. It is an early masterwork of Rhythmism. During that time Onli was gigging as a major market illustrator.

JUNE 15th 2014:

 Sporting a vintage "Rhythmistic Venus" t-shirt from Onli, is Ms Jun.  She came to Chicago recently from Tokyo for a self directed Blues tour researching the legacy of the late Blues Great Lefty Dizz! During her stay one of my former musical clients,  Aki,  brought her to visit "The Father of the Black Age" in the sunny Bridgeport Art Center.  The location of ONLI STUDIOS in Chicago.  
All the way after Father's Day 2014.
Jun was surprised to learn about Onli's early Rhythmistic artwork in the "Rhythm and Sounds" album cover book from the UK. Both sample were from the 1970s.....rocking the globalized Rhythmistic visual path to now and later. Collectors, curators and critics tune in.
