The first thing that came into my head upon hearing of the death of Ronald Reagan was that old "can of poisoned meat" cut-up, released as a flexidisk with an early issue of Art Spiegelman and Francoise Mouly's Raw magazine. As a penniless university student I drooled over a copy of it that sat for some time behind the counter at a record or book shop in Melbourne the name and location of which has got lost somewhere between the back of my mind and the front. It might have been Gaumont Book Co, Glen Terry's wonderful outpost of the London punk scene, in Little Collins Street, although I don't think the chronology quite works out, and the shop counter I have in my mind doesn't match. Damn.
