MS Paint: George Benson - "The Other Side of Abbey Road" / "Ralph Rumpelton" Art
What Rumpelton has done here is less a tribute to George Benson and more a hostile takeover.
“What Rumpelton has done here is less a tribute to George Benson and more a hostile takeover. The vehicles are blocky ghosts of the 1970s, the pedestrians are warped echoes of forgotten dreams, and the perspective collapses like an origami disaster. It’s Abbey Road through a cracked windshield—and it’s magnificent.”
— Vernon Pyle, Editor-at-Large, Irregular Modernism Quarterly
This MS Paint reinterpretation of The Other Side of Abbey Road isn't a tribute—it's a jazz detour through a memory that may or may not exist. I took Benson’s smooth swing and stranded him in a pastel purgatory of squashed cars, jellybean limbs, and architectural indifference. It’s Abbey Road imagined by someone who skimmed the vinyl sleeve while eating pudding. The perspective’s flat, the color’s sleepy, and Benson might be floating—but maybe that’s the point. Call it a sketch. Call it sabotage. Either way, it’s the only Abbey Road where you’re invited to trip on the curb and hum along.
