Born Under a Bad Sign Tony Palmer and Ralph Steadman, Forward by John Lennon Signed limited edition of this re-publication of Tony Palmer's first book on the state of pop music at the beginning of the 1970's. Limited to just 26 lettered copies, of which this is "S," signed by both Palmer and Steadman with an original signed collage and screenprint artwork by Steadman called "Pop Pedestal." Complete with three tissue guards and the original publisher's prospectus.  First published in 1970, Born Under a Bad Sign captures the essence of the 1960s, where music authentically reflected the emotions and spirit of the time, unfiltered by nostalgia or wishful thinking. This tribute to artistic innovation includes profiles of bands like Cream, Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Pink Floyd, and more. The book evolved from Palmer’s BBC documentary, All My Loving, which gained significant attention for scenes like Hendrix’s provocative guitar performance and Townshend’s notorious equipment-smashing.
