Borders had it earlier this summer on the cut-out shelf for $4. Must reading for Alembic freaks, even if you're not a Deadhead. |

I got it when it came out. Came with an autographed endpaper and an interesting CD of dead rarities with introductions by Phil. Graeme |

Last week a co-worker dropped it on my desk as a gift. (edited to remove a misunderstanding) I'm up to ~page 250 currently. It's a very good book in my opinion Back to the spectacles Mike (Message edited by dadabass2001 on August 28, 2007) |

If you want this book, you should buy it from this guy, not Borders. I didn't want to be rude by suggesting otherwise, but I've been informed that I was. |

If you find it locally, go for it (that will save $5+ shipping). It's a good book. I just bought extra's when I found it for $5 at 1/2 price books here in Austin. |

This is really a great book for all musicians, he gets into describing the interplay among the band and with the audience in a way I thought nobody knew about. I read this when I was a 'mere' guitar player and one night I decided I would "Phil-Leshize" the crowd by taking them on a musical journey in a Sweet Home Alabama solo. It was the first time in 35 years of playing that people were hollering and clapping for any solo I'd ever played. It was cool that I set out to blow their minds and lo! Michael |
