Truly a relic from a time of pre-phone poops but yea when i was a kid my parents had these books in the bathroom n i would learn so much stuff about things id never heard of. Trivia , stories , essays , puzzles its really the best books ever
Looked it up rn and apparently there are 42 books in the series so get you some coffee and hit the shitters my friend
These are small enough to fit in your back pocket and there’s so many of them to choose from! Just pick an album you like and you can read all about how it was made/ what impact it had/ (usually) interviews of the band who made it
I get it. I do. They're pretty, they pile, you buy more. and I understand that there's a whole different sort of feeling when buying a book. a sense of permanence and a sudden feeling of intellectualism. and book stores are among the best spaces in the world. thing is, it's all shit if you haven't read it in the end. (side note/psa: STOP buying coffee table books. no one is going to flick through your lifestyle Louis Vuitton. or your print book you got at that gallery once on that holiday. Banksy's 'Wall and Piece' is the only exception. others are simply nonsensical clutter.)
