I spent an hour or so pouring over this book at my local Borders.... Anyone plunk down the $20 or so and pick it up? Pretty darned detailed. I spent most of my time going over 1984 and forward... I've read so much about the 'origins' having read all the Circus' , Hit Paraders, Creams, Kerrangs back then...
Martin Popoff is a very good writer, his book on Rush was fantastic. I was pretty surprised at the quality. 360 pgs with lots of photos, too many magazine covers to suit me. He wrote a book on Sabbath didn't he?
Any comments or complaints?
Here's the amazon link.... if you're not familiar.... ........
