  • Rock'n'Roll producer and artist Kim Fowley's book of memoirs and poetry

    Kim Fowley was an underground figure in Rock'n'Roll, from 1959 'til he passed away in 2015. He was a songwriter, talent scout, record producer and publicist who had a string of hits in the 1960s; some, like 1965's The Trip and the "novelty song" They're Coming To Take Me Away - Ha Ha!, under his own name. He worked with many artists as diverse as The Byrds, Cat Stevens, Gene Vincent, Kiss, Alice Cooper, The Seeds, The Runaways, PJ Proby, etc.. He also made his own albums: Outrageous (1968) The Day The Earth Stood Still (1970) I'm Bad (1972) International Heroes (1973) and Living In The Streets (1977) being among the most memorable. Lord Of Garbage is a book or Fowley's poetry. He was well-read and was a prolific producer and improviser of lyrics. The book's narrative is there to place the poems in context. Fowley writes of his family and childhood, of Los Angeles and Hollywood, the arrival of Rock'n'Roll and about some of the artists he worked with and knew, like John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and The Soft Machine. He has a great sense of humour and the poetry is not bad either. Lord Of Garbage is the only book of the three that were planned and it covers the years from Fowley's childhood to 1969. Kim Fowley passed away from cancer in 2015, before he could complete and publish the other two planned parts of Lord Of Garbage.
