Mentioned a little while ago, these two books recently arrived:
- Alan Jenkins: The History Of Expermental Surf Music
If you are a fan of Jenkins’ delightfully weird discography (including his work with The Deep Freeze Mice or R. Stevie Moore), or simply love unclassifiable, delightfully eccentric garage-psych or his surf music excursions, "The History Of Experimental Surf Music" will be very enjoyable reading.
Although the booklet discusses several releases on Alan's Cordelia Records label, the reader should not expect any answers, details or other insights. Instead, you will be treated to stories that sprang from the imagination of Alan Jenkins. (At least, that's what I hope they are.)
- Raphael Henry: Frank Zappa
Another book about Frank Zappa. I quote the writer:
What interested me more was how he constructed his music, his ideas, and his independence over time.
