(*for your information: Rumours claim that Jimmy Page played the guitar
solo on the Kinks' "You really got me", which he didn't, although he
actually DID add *rhythm* guitar to "All day and all of the night" and
few other early Kinks songs. At least, so the story goes... B.B.)
I didn't get that one by David Bowie, I must admit...
So what about using our creative minds to come up with some more books?
Here is one: "How to change your appearance through different haircuts"
by Peter Garrett.
