Wow. I'd call that a find. Do NOT part with that - - you'll hate yourself!! I've never seen anything like that in my years of scavenging. If that book IS 1978 and had those two Clash tunes from London Calling, they must've JUST been written/released a

Asmuch as I'd like to have a copy of that book I must concur: DO NOT GET RID OF IT! (not even to me!!!) You'll shoot yourself in a few years if you part with this tome.
