Mick:EARTH UNDER FIRE is a book that I have heard of --- but dammit
Mick --- I simply cannot read EVRYTHING OUT THERE!Currently, I am reading the following book:FRANK ZAPPA: The Negative Dialectics of Poodle Playby Ben WatsonThis book is a scholarly overview of the social and dialectical
significance of Frank Zappa's music. Watson compares Zappa to a
man named Theodor Adorno --- a man who injected psychological
mindfuck techniques into everyday pop music.This thing reads like a PhD dissertation --- it is refreshing to read
a book about pop music that doesn't read like a DICK AND JANE
reading primer!Thanks for the tip --- I will put it on my TO BUY list.Mick, in a typical year I read about 150-200 books.At least someone here is doing their homework!KDB = Buffalo, NY USA
