His posters for Crime are classics and highly prized collectors' items. This book contains over 100 photos, including many behind-the-scenes looks at the bands who made things happen: Nuns, Avengers, Crime, Screamers, Negative Trend, Dils, Germs, UXA, etc. Interviews with the bands and people on the scene give vivid, darkly humorous glimpses of events in a Please Kill Me (Legs McNeil) style.
