Hi all,

I recently bought Volume 16 of Robert Crumb's "The Complete  Crumb" (The Mid- 1980s) 
published by Fantagraphics Books. The cover and first section is about JRM being put 
under a voodoo curse by a business partner - he supposedly told this to Alan Lomax - 
and this was the cause of his downfall...

R Crumb was is no slouch when it comes to OKOM - his Cheap Suit Serenaders and many 
years of collecting old records are good proof of that! This particular volume also 
includes his "Pioneers of Country Music" trading card series.

anyway, you can find this book in many good comic book stores or at 
www.fantagraphics.com
