For those who are interested, Simon Reynolds' "Rip It Up And Start Again"
(postpunk 1978-1984) has finally been released. Someone posted the web site
that had the essay this was based on a while back, but the book is finally
out - at least in the UK (in the US, Kim's has it in New York - just don't
ask them about their computer system...)
I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but am looking forward to it.
And on the subject of exotica, no one seems to have noticed that Martin
Denny's Exotica and Exotica 2 have been reissued on Cherry Red in the UK
(Forced Exposure is listing them for distribution in the US).
Back to lurking...
