My friend JoSH AGle




This is my good friend Josh Agle aka SHAG. I met Josh in 1985. He was in the band Swamp Zombies that were signed to the Dr. Dream label. Josh was the art director for Dr. Dream and was probably the most influential person for creating the total Dr. Dream image. Easy going, hard working and sensible Josh was always working on a new design for whatever the label needed. He also was the editor of "The Dream Scene" our whenever newsletter. Now, looking back on all the changes that happened over the "Dr. Dream" years. I can safely say that Josh was the rock. He was the longest continuous employee for Dr. Dream. When times were tough and money was tight Josh believed in what we were doing and hung in there, even when better paying gigs were offered him. He was my very best employee and hung with the label even after I left.



We recently re-connected and we're planning a Dr. Dream Records Reunion. I'll keep everyone posted on the details as they solidify. Please check out Josh's artwork by clicking on this blogs title. or visit www.shag.com. The guy is frickin famous now and believe me he earned every single iota of his current fame
