“Sampler” book drafted!

Well I’m finally getting there… I’ve just completed a first draft of 2/3 of my book – 300 pages. I’ll be sending this out to people who might be able to provide me with a cover endorsement (if they actually like it…)

So what’s completed?

There’s the Introduction, a foreword by Jean-Jacques Birgé, and a history of the French Underground music scene up to 1970.

Then the stories of: Red Noise, Barricade, Maajun, Komintern, Fille Qui Mousse, Bananamoon, Ame Son, Cheval Fou, Nyl, Clearlight, Delired Cameleon Family, Moving Gelatine Plates, and Jac Berrocal.

Finally a Discography, Bibliography, and list of Source material.

Still to come: Heldon, Gong, Magma, Etron Fou Leloublan, Lard Free, Camizole, Philippe Besombes, Birgé Gorgé Shiroc, Zao, Crium Delirium, Dagon, and Ilitch…
