"Boy's Own" The Complete Fanzines 1986-92 Frank Broughton (Editor), Bill Brewster (Editor)
DJhistory.com 0956189628 / 9780956189622 Hardcover New
The Boy's Own crew were having so much fun that in six years they only managed to loose off 12 issues. But these 440 pages depict acid house culture – the slang, the parties, the tunes, the humour – better than anything, as captured in the words of Farley, Mayes, Weatherall, Oakenfold and many more key players. As well as every page of every fanzine there’s a great interview with all the Boys.

My exploring of this unique hobby has resulted in memories (and a few photos) that I will never forget. I cannot tell you how much pleasure these girls have brought me and I have not heard of any red-blooded male who has walked away from an experience with a Mexican prostitute completely dissatisfied.

10 A Boot Stomping 20 A Human Face 30 Goto 10 Jess Gulbranson
LegumeMan 0980593840 / 9780980593846 Paperback New
One minute you've got a quiet life. No friends except those in your record collection. Free from technological slavery. Just pizza for dinner and a job you love at the local record store... Funny how things spiral out of control... Next thing you know you're embroiled in some poorly thought out conspiracy. Cavorting with shady government officials, scientists and recently ressurrected music legends. A cog in a baffling plot that keeps getting stranger by the minute. Getting shot at, kidnapped, trailed by possible alien-human hybrids. Forced to endure not only potentially dangerous scientific experiments but also the crackpot philosophical musings of possible agent/probable nutcase Jones. A man on a mission that could lead to complete knowledge... or the complete destruction of the world. And all because you did a little accidental necromancy on your way home from work. Funny how things spiral out of control...

1000 Record Covers Michael Ochs
Taschen 3822840858 / 9783822840856 Paperback New
A fascinating survey of cover art (TASCHEN's 25th anniversary special edition) Record covers are a sign of our life and times. Like the music on the discs, they address such issues as love, life, death, fashion, and rebellion. For music fans the covers are the expression of a period, of a particular time in their lives. Many are works of art and have become as famous as the music they stand for?Andy Warhol's covers, for example, including the banana he designed for The Velvet Underground. This special edition of Record Covers presents a selection of the best 60s to 90s rock album covers from music archivist, disc jockey, journalist, and ex-record publicity executive Michael Ochs's enormous private collection. Both a trip down memory lane and a study in the evolution of cover art, this is a sweeping look at an under-appreciated art form.

2048: Humanity's Agreement to Live Together J. Kirk Boyd
Berrett-Koehler 1605093300 / 9781605093307 Paperback New
"2048 "tells the story of the most important social movement in the 21st century: humanity’s agreement, in writing, to create a social order that will allow people to live together in peace and prosperity based upon human rights and the rule of law. Many of the problems the world faces, such as war, poverty, and environmental ruin are the by-product of a flawed international social order. Fortunately, there is an international agreement, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) which all countries signed in 1948, that promises a social order of justice, equality, and freedom. But although the UDHR was agreed to by all countries it is only a declaration and is unenforceable in courts of law. The 2048 Project, launched by the author and his colleagues at the University of California School of Law and from which the book gets it’s name, is a movement to make the fundamental rights in the Declaration enforceable in the courts of all countries by 2048, the 100th anniversary of the Universal Declaration. Through its programs and Web site, the 2048 Project provides education, research materials, and a place for drafters to post documents, as well as hosts international conferences on human rights. "2048 "tells how the UDHR came to be written and the origins of the movement to make it enforceable; lays out the five basic freedoms the UDHR is meant to protect; and gives detailed advice on what everyone can do to make international human rights a reality.

2666 Roberto Bolano
Pan Macmillan 0312429215 / 9780312429218 Paperback New
Three academics on the trail of a reclusive German author; a New York reporter on his first Mexican assignment; a widowed philosopher; a police detective in love with an elusive older woman--these are among the searchers drawn to the border city of Santa Teresa, where over the course of a decade hundreds of women have disappeared. In the words of "The Washington Post," "With "2666," Roberto Bolano joins the ambitious overachievers of the twentieth-century novel, those like Proust, Musil, Joyce, Gaddis, Pynchon, Fuentes, and Vollmann, who push the novel far past its conventional size and scope to encompass an entire era, deploying encyclopedic knowledge and stylistic verve to offer a grand, if sometimes idiosyncratic, summation of their culture and the novelist's place in it. Bolano has joined the immortals."

99th Monkey Eliezer Sobel
Santa Monica Press 159580028X / 9781595800282 Paperback New
While a romp through the New Age is not everyone's cup of tea novelist publisher and editor Sobel (Minyan) does a fine job making his 30-year quest for spiritual awakening widely identifiable with a funny clear-eyed account that takes readers around the world and through a gauntlet of gurus shamans workshops and retreats not to mention sex and drugs (legal and otherwise). Sobel's twin assets are his willingness and his sense of humor both apparent from the start in his encounter with a guru named Ram Dass whose first instruction to Sobel is to take off his pants (So I did). Other episodes include Primal Therapy training with a teacher who rents his office space for porn production the est training that teaches people to accept reality as it is (and then rope everyone they know into the program) and tours through Jerusalem India and Brazil. Sobel's spiritual journey doesn't provide any answers (these days the title on his business card is Human Being) but provides lots of engaging regular-guy perspective on modern man's confounding array of ancient and contemporary fulfillment schemes.
