Another favourite Frey subject - Fred Astaire films. Plans for a lavish and largely monochrome Astaire cover had been formulated ages before but never carried out. When the great Hollywood star died Oliver insisted on dedicating the issue of CRASH to him, and featuring him with his most famous partner, Ginger Rogers, on the cover. The other elements, dancing on a newly-arrived Spectrum +3, were the issue's lead games: Tai-Pan, Micronaut One, Exolon and The Big Sleaze. It was another compilation cover, a style for which Oliver has become justifiably celebrated. |
