I mentioned this on Facebook, but I'm halfway thru the book ( got the signed copy from Rough Trade a little early ). And it's all I hoped it would be ( as someone who also jumped onboard the RK train around "Neurotica" ), & so much more. I've learned SO much reading it - like the whole Sky Saxon chunk...NO idea that was a thing. While I read, I found that album on YouTube...and man, they weren't kidding about the album's quality. So of course I had to find a copy on Discogs ASAP. ( mild spoiler : the KISS song they "played" w/him that Jeff couldn't recall was "Fits Like A Glove" ) The book is making up for my not being able to see the band on this last tour. Thanks!

Ah ha! That unnamed KISS song was something I'd made a mental note to research, but never got around to — probably because I couldn't sit through the whole Sky record to figure it out. Thank you for your service!

I only made it thru as long as it took to read that part of the book. Ha ha...afterward, I zipped thru the YouTube to confirm the song, assuming it was prime 70's KISS. Nope - an album track from the 1st unmasked record "Lick It Up". Go figure.

Surely the Hecker influence coming into play...

Didn't even think of that, but it makes sense.
