Is the title of a bootleg, right? I was always curious where this somewhat evocative phrase came from. Can anyone enlighten me?

Posted: **28 Aug 2003, 13:31**

Yes. It's from them Palazzograssi guys. I do own it but I can't remember what's on it. Is the title actually a quote from the book The Stand, by Stephen King?

according to google its randall flagg, a steven king character that appears in a few of his books:

http://www.geocities.com/rf677/flaggmain.html

Randall Flagg

His name is Legion

He looks like anybody you see on the street. But when he grins, birds fall dead off telephone lines

He can call the wolves and live in the crows

He is the last magician of rational thought

He is the Devilâ€™s Pawn.

and http://www.geocities.com/Meridith_Burwood/book.html

Flagg represents America's evils, and he is the last magician of rational thought

Thank you QB.

I always liked the Palazzograssi bootlegs. They always looked good, sounded okay and smelled sweet.

it shows up on ebay from time to time and it s not very expensive

either

Thank you for clearing that one up! I've read The Stand too, and didn't notice...

Speaking of Palazzograssi, I've got Silence is Platinum, which is very nice, but contains the gig review but not the poster...boo hoo...

Tis a fine bootleg

- Much better in overall packaging than of the Official Releases!

As well as a good boot, Last Magicians of Rational Thought were also a rather good goth band fron Leeds Circa 96/97

Tracks 1-4 on the WEA mix bootleg ...but the sound isn't as good as on the Palazzograssi single.

Got a copy this morning!

Was wondering when we'd get a mention!
I'm very surprised The Man Himself (i.e. Dr. J. Embry) hasn't put in an appearance here himself. Mind you, I think he likes to keep a low profile in goth circles these days... can't say I blame him

I think he took all those attempts to destroy him rather too seriously.

I found some old info on this single, for anyone interested in that kind of thing.
All info is from an Italian collector I used to trade with, who is either one of the Palazzograssi guys himself, or was just really good friends. He never admitted to being either.
