Who wrote Mac's book?

OK people, so did Mac ever answer to this? And, by the way, is Dorian still alive? Does anyone else think there is something a bit weird/disturbing about Julian?

I'd buy it.

Start saving your pennies then.

1. Probably not. 2. Yes, very much so. 3. Of course, but that's fine.

Writing off Mac's Post-Ocean Rain work is ridiculous. Every album before The Fountain had at least one or more works of godlike genius. Of course, The Fountain now makes Julian's vitriolic and amusing criticisms of Mac completely valid.
Mac's contribution was important, as was Noel Burke's. However much some people would like to re-write history, the band was lucky enough to be graced with two great singer-songwriters in addition to it's great individual instrumentalists.

Awlright. I looked them all up to find out he's got two daughters with Dorian. raised the poor things in hippie weirdness. I honestly felt some concern for Dorian with all the drugs and insanity of their youth. Julian's blog is entertainingly weird.

He will be delighted to hear that. I think that to be recognised as weird was one of Cope's ambitions.

I have it on good record that the publishing industry is notoriously slow - plus some lawyer will have to read it and query everything - and then get him to change it and all that bollocks.

though if the first page contains the sentence - "the first time I saw cope i thought he was a fucking looser", we'll k now the answer to the question posed at the start of this thread wont we.
