Alien: The Strange Life And Times Of Mendelson Joe
Musician, artist, anti-smoker, ecological gadfly — here is Mendelson Joe’s story, in his own outrageous word.

Joe holds forth on the things that fascinate him: the female body, motorcycles, rabbits, nature, art, and music. He tells of touring the world with his blues-rock band Mendelson McKenna Mainline in the early ’70s, sharing concert stages with burlesque strippers, and discovering a passion for art after rescuing a set of acrylic paints from a garbage can.
