COULD THIS BE MAGIC
VAN HALEN BEFORE 1978
By ELIZABETH WILEY
Published: 6/4/2012
Format: Perfect Bound Softcover(B/W)
Pages: 48
Size: 8.5×11
ISBN: 978-1-46692-929-6
Print Type: Color
Overview
A book, very short, about my years with Van Halen practicing in my garage.

Foster sister Linda Estrada managed Red Ball Jet for some time, and Elizabeth took pictures of them, as well as other bands, for publicity fliers and press releases. As Red Ball Jet merged with Mammoth and eventually became Van Halen, the band practiced in her garage in exchange for helping her repair a house she had bought for her two children after a divorce.

The big question is, is it worth $4 bucks to see the whole thing? (you don’t need a Kindle device, just a web browser)

I was going to buy it, but after reading the preview I am not so sure.

The part that intrigues me is the possibility of more old photos.

There are photos I have never seen before (about 3 photos per member (including Mark Stone); no photos of Michael; a few of the band in concert). Don’t kill me if the photos are in circulation :-D
