Pynchon's most recent work

[gama at world-net.sct.fr]

>From Nojo magazine, August, 1995:
New York band Lotion received an unexpected fillip when cult novelist Thomas 
Pynchon penned the sleevenote for their second album Nobody's Cool.  "As 
beneath the austerities of twelvetone music may lurk some shameless piece of 
Baroque polyphony," notes the author of _Vineland_ and _Gravity's Rainbow_ 
in his inimitable style, "so throughout this album, beneath the formal 
demands of rock and roll as we have come to know it. . .may also be detected 
the weird jiving sense of humour of a cruise combo. . ."  [Let's gets this 
guy writing for Mojo - Ed.]  Although sworn to secrecy as to his exact 
whereabouts - like everyone who has come within Pynchon's orbit - 
bassist/guitarist brothers Bill and Jim Ferguson have let it slip that the 
offer came about after the great man got chatting with their mom in the 
Manhattan bank where she works.  Seems the perennially hip 58-year-old was 
already a huge fan of their first album, Full Issac, and after dropping in 
on the sessions for Nobody's Cool offered to pay homage to the cruise combo 
who like to think of themselves as "New York's first real pop band".
