I'm reading two books simultaneously. No wait, that would be really confusing. I am reading two books, alternatively. A few chapters of one, then a few chapters of another.
Both are about r&r odd-balls: Andrew Loog Oldman and Arthur Lee of Love. Both are pivotal figures in the 60's. One in London, one in L.A. Both contributed greatly to the r&r zeitgeist of the times.
I am very attracted to the odd-balls. I think I'm an odd-ball too. That is a club in which I wouldn't mind being a member. So actually I find both of these people so compelling and interesting. And each in their own way had lots of success, and lots of failure, and sometimes it was hard to tell which was which.
Interesting lives and times for sure!
