<<(Ellroy denies this, while insisting Mosley could not
have written his
"Red" book without reading the LA Quartet.)>>
A curious assertion. Musically speaking, Mosley is a man of
the blues
and Ellroy a frenzied hard-bopper. Their styles have totally
different
beats. I didn't see any traces of Ellroy's influence on _A
Red Death_.
Maybe we should invite Ellroy to [expunged: get his ass over
here]
participate in this forum. I'm sure it would be [expunged: a
stinking
mess] a lot of fun.
