Aztec Camera.....After The Fall

Dave McCullough, Sounds, 3 January 1981

 

FLICKING THROUGH the yellow faded pages of a 1913 storybook entitled Happy Rhymes And Funny Times, you come to a page with a picture of a kitten sitting on the floor banging a drum. It says beneath in botched print: WHEN ONE WEE KITTEN'S IN THE HOUSE IT'S ALL QUIET AS A MOUSE; WHEN TWO ARE THERE IT'S NOT SO QUIET, BUT ENOUGH TO CALL A RIOT!
