HW: OFF: a couple of links

[Doug Pearson]

First, a review of Mick Farren's autobiography, 'Give the Anarchist A
Cigarette':
http://enjoyment.independent.co.uk/books/reviews/story.jsp?story=108743

sample quote:
>Mick Farren was not the kind of sweet peace-and-love-man hippie
>parodied by Nigel Planer in The Young Ones. He came on like a cross
>between Abbie Hoffman and Charles Manson and fooled not a few people,
>despite being essentially a pussycat.

Also, a review of a local band, Troll, who I never heard of:

Troll 'Qué Son Los Trolls y en Qué Nos Ayudan?' (Orange Sun)

quote:
>A number of familiar ingredients swirl and bubble in the Troll sound --
>especially the charred flower-power of Sonic Youth and space-rock jams
>of '70s Hawkwind -- but the band adds some new seasonings.
