  Elegy 06/08  
 
 
  You know everything about Siouxsie & The Banshees?  Don't you believe it!  If you are English speaking you will be delighted to learn about Songs:  From The Edge Of The World by Peter Routley.  Following the chronological discography of the group, Peter brings back in a very clear and well laid out way what the band said and what the press said concerning the songs of the Banshees.  The author equally adds for each album the dates of concerts on the tours which follow, also the reports published in the press of the time from one concert from the same tour.  And of course the book is lavishly illustrated with photos, some of them very rare.  Ins hort, more than 150 pages of pleasure for every Siouxsie fan.
