He was a force in those days, writing with prospective and grace. His work was like little capsules that one would take and end up a bit pulp smarter.<br /><br />I am a little unsure why you called him mysterious, he was known and accessable during the time that he was researching pulp magazines. However he did hold one mystery for me. That was how he could read so much so quickly. It was as if he would read an entire pulp novel for lunch. The breadth of his reading was impressive. One has to wonder as he was cramming so much knowledge into one brain if ever for a nanosecond, he confused some psudo-science from a pulp story about going to the moon with the real thing.<br /><br />His prose was a pearl. Later, he began emerging as a writer of hardboiled short stories with contributions to the revived Black Mask. Then death took him.Daryl S.

Unfortunately I'm about 60 pages into actually reading it and the pictures are turning out to be the highlight, whereas the text is rather glib and strikingly bereft of much info on the Lydeckers themselves.<br /><br />If you're into behind the scenes PHOTOS this is a must buy. But if you want to read any sort of in depth info on the lives and process work of the Lydeckers, at least so far I can't recommend it. I'll get to the end of it before I really give a public review, but right now I'm feeling pretty glum about what is written.shonokinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10763268507407471807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33610708.post-77578351989650075012010-09-10T19:47:10.174-07:002010-09-10T19:47:10.174-07:00great review, and I plugged it (and your blog) on ...great review, and I plugged it (and your blog) on the Xenorama facebook page.X7https://www.blogger.com/profile/16050119714244967980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33610708.post-24362080815704487342010-09-01T08:32:14.285-07:002010-09-01T08:32:14.285-07:00Hi there, (again)

But we love it so much, we try to compensate. In more recent (s3) episodes, I've been focusing on reducing his volume during the edit, but sometimes I guess we slip (it's only me and Jeremy editing, and sometimes we struggle with this). Sorry to hear it's still a pain. I'll definitely look into the levelator. It seems as though that might be something we can run all the episodes through, improving some of the mixing quality without going back and doing a true re-mixing of the series (which would be a bear).<br /><br />Thanks again for the feedback, and I'm glad you stuck with the show as long as you did! Hopefully, we can rectify some of these problems, and keep you on as a listener!<br /><br />-- DaveDavid Accampohttp://wormwoodshow.comnoreply@blogger.com
