Call it "Rock crit rips off the title to your cassette - Lose
1 point."  Reading the Billboard blomag _Inside Tracks_ I see
that Charles M. Young is finishing _Blowin' Chunks: The Incomplet
History of Punk Rock and Other Stuff_ for Doubleday/Dolphin.
Not a bad column by the dude - basically a screed on '86 being
the year of the dinosaur (again) and cites J.D. Considine for
best alb review when he called GTR SHT.  I say your whorin is
showin and go back to working crossword puzzles.  More Flipper:
the cut "Southern California" on PFLtd was recorded at Fenders,
not the OnClub as the liner notes say.  Everybody who wanked on
the Jesus and Mary Chain now go genuflect at the alter of Ted
Falconi.  Subterranean is their record label, but they also do
mailorder for some SF indies.

Henry Rollins' book _Hallucinations of Grandeur_ is available
from Rollins, POB 2461, Redondo Beach CA 90278.  It's journal
entries from 85-86 covering two Black Flag tours, readings,
etc.  Not too many masterful insights, but the tour commentary
is an entertaining read as Flag shoestrings it while rocking
the nation.

Quote from Kyle: "Good shows have 16-yearold skinheads jumping
off the stage."  And you wonder why he didn't like Nyctophobia.
It's just your brain constipation, K.
