Julian Cope’s ‘Krautrocksampler’ in PDF form
dangerousminds.net

You have to love some­one who scans every sin­gle page of their favourite book just so they can spread the wordy magic with their friends on the inter­net. So, big thanks then to Evan Levine at the Swan Fun­gus blog for doing just that…

Bets part:

“Unfortunately, the book–much like oft-drooled-over records of the era–is out of print. But the version Ian sent me to read today has survived and been passed-down between generations (okay, not passed-down between generations, but e-mailed between friends) in a sort-of post-Soviet technological samizdat…if you want to spend $174.95 for a copy of this book, be my guest! NOTE: IF YOU ARE JULIAN COPE (OR REPRESENT JULIAN COPE, OR PUBLISHED THIS BOOK) AND YOU WOULD LIKE THIS INFORMATION REMOVED, PLEASE CONTACT ME DIRECTLY, AND I WILL SWIFTLY AND GLADLY COMPLY (and, consequently, deprive literally TENS of fanboys from learning more about the bands they love).”

Well-said.
