Reading "A wizard a true star" about Todd Rundgren and his studio genius, very interesting read. I actually dont have any of his albums, but i do have quite a few on the ones he produced. of which my favourite is XTC's Skylarking. Also reading Michael Dibdins Zen detective novels after seeing the TV series... Oh Caterina Mureno is gorgeous ! the books are of course much better than the TV series excellent. @Plinth, Steinbeck is an amazing writer, been a while but I devoured all his books as a teenager... East of Eden, Grapes of Wrath. I guess they'd be old fashioned no wbut superb stories.
