joe carducci

another one to add to my list: joe carducci, former sst records principal and author of rock and the pop narcotic, "the only book on rock and roll worthy of the name" (his words), has a new tome out. enter naomi: sst, l.a., and all that... focuses on the label he helped build and the early l.a. punk scene in general through the lens of late lamented photog naomi petersen, whose work provides essential documentation of said scene. it's available direct from joe's warehouse and looks like yet another worthwhile read.
