I haven't read it through yet, but it seems pretty interesting (it's well above the level of Gans' anemic radio personality). It's a large format paperback, with boatloads of wild photos (Simon compiled the photos, Gans wrote it). One of the things he's done is to sprinkle lyrics throughout the text, without stating which song they come from. Here are two I'm stuck on (I know I'm gonna feel silly, but I jez gotta know): 1. The shape it takes could be yours to choose. 2. Might as well travel the elegant way. Now golly gee, this last one is a prime candidate for might-as-well-ness, but I can't for the life of me think of the verse. Anyone got ideas? - Jim (mayfield@berkeley)
