1965 Ads: Part 3

Rhino is launching a new series of short e-books called Single Notes this month.  The first offering is Binky Philips' My Life in the Ghost of Planets: The Story of a CBGB Almost-Was, and it's available for free from iBooks and Amazon until June 19 (it'll cost about 3 bucks after that).  I'm sure I'd be singing its praises here, but at the present time Amazon is only offering this to Kindle Fire and Kindle for Android users, so I'm S.O.L. until this supposed system glitch is fixed.  For now I can only console myself with a brief excerpt and an interview with Binky at the book's Rhino page.    


Here's an excellent essay from recording engineer Rob Freeman on the making of the first Ramones album.  It's technical, but not so jargon-heavy as to make a studio neophyte's eyes glaze over.


Shindig and Ugly Things types will flip for new 'zine Flashback, which includes a fine piece on Alan Betrock's Rock Marketplace.
