This book is a great read, and I recommend it highly -- simply reading the Table of Contents tells you that you are in for a great ride."
The first two editions of "The Dish" sold several thousand copies. The third "Special Edition," released in 2004 at a Barnes & Noble (Lincoln Center) book signing, included a DVD with music and animated video artwork, which Marshall Yaeger also created. As one reviewer wrote, about his visuals:
"The video mandalas are delicious, simultaneously visceral, tactile, radiant, an eclectic gyrating satellite of sound and sight in a rhythm that catapults us ever forward. This fourth dimension, an interactive experience, is a domain of sonic, visual and spatial shapes, panoramic visions that bloom and dance like sparkling brisés, a cascading sonic cloisonné. This deep and powerful wash of seductive sound, as well as its captivating Yaeger canvas, stimulates our neuronal system with its high-impact visuals, a soul-searching, stunning recording that thrills from beginning to end, a must!"
