Speaking of Rock and Roll photogs... has anyone seen Charles
Peterson's "Touch me I'm Sick"? Its a book of photos of the "Seattle
scene" from a young photog who was "in" with the bands. Although I am
a Marshall fan as well, Peterson's book to me has so much more
innocence (I think thats the word). Its really quite striking. I'd
highly reccommend it.
