are you moonlighting for that Baker person, or his publisher? Title: Re: Anyone else here read... Post by: Andrew G. Doe on June 18, 2009, 12:05:29 PM Nope - he died some time ago. I just rediscovered the book in a box: it's about a legendary record producer from the early 60s who became a recluse and how a DJ who's a fan gets to know him. Great sense of time & place, damn funny as well. But not a book you'd let your mom read. Probably. ;D

My brother bought it for me as a joke birthday present, not actually thinking I would read it...but then I did. That gave me some weird dreams for a few days. The descriptions of the "song" (can't remember of the top of my head..."Tidal Wave of Sound"...?) are excellent...made me go back to River Deep Mountain High several times, but the ending, with the revelation, the contents of the bag...dear god, that is twisted. So, Spector's in jail now, huh? Title: Re: Anyone else here read... Post by: Andrew G. Doe on June 23, 2009, 04:03:22 AM The cover (of the paperback) is worth the price alone:
