It's long out-of-print, I have only ever found German translations.

Somebody upped a .pdf of the whole damned thing in one of the threads!! Can't remember where though for the life of me

I have read bits of it but it's a tremendous strain to try and read a book off the monitor, besides for the most part the contents of the book are near-common knowledge now. Cope's lists and writing are always on form though

Their version of Black Sabbath is evil.

Baggs was fortunate to catch them live back in the day WHEN THEY WERE JUST BEING PROMOTED IN LEUTONIA at a dance at Delta High School in Hamilton, Ontario.

They were totally unknown and for the most part the "crowd" was utterly ambivilent.
Only Baggs' tongue was hanging out touching the floor in an absolute stupor of admiration.

The guitarist, Ishima's hair was down below his hips. This was in ...maybe '71.

The Leutonian press of "Satori" has different coverart and this from Larry Green, DJ of CHUM FM:
"How welcome
the Flower Travellin' Band
like the rising sun."

(Or something to that effect.)

There was a Canadian band back then called Lighthouse ( not prog ) and I guess they took TFTB under their wing because I saw that band about 3 times.

Really heavy, japanese ROCK!
