Book I co-authored selected in #2 position in Monorail's 'Books of the Year'.
"A Record Could Be Your Whole World - and don’t we know it. Here’s a beautiful artefact from elsewhere / NZ which declares Vinyl Records As The Total Artwork Of The Late Twentieth Century. Edited by Bruce Russell and Luke Wood, riso-printed with full colour inserts, there’s love all over this - Russell on The Fall’s early landmark, Slates; Wood on The Byrds’ Sweetheart Of The Rodeo. There’s crucial info on Letraset, lathe-cutting, mixtapes, micro and macro music, records as portals. It’s got an essay by Jon Dale called Music Has Broad Shoulders which is the perfect summary of what this book is. Similar feeling to dipping into The Wire 20 odd years ago - there’s so much out there, so much to convey, so let’s get stuck in. "
