The Chevy 6 35th anniversary book, 35rpm, has been 35 years in the making. Well, duh. It is the result of obsessive behavior on the part of Ben Burford, that included an acute case of packrattitis, a love for history and an indelible bond with Chevy 6.

The book is 120 pages of hilarity and information, including stories from 7 years of Burford's journals, pictures and other ephemera that comprise a good pictures of not only Chevy 6, but also of life in general.

The most ponderous element of the book is a comprehensive list of all the jobs Chevy 6 has had since April 27, 1974. You can find the parties you went to, the parties you gave, and other crucial information necessary to keep a healthy life balance.

The book is accompanied by a 2-disc live set that begins with performances in 1975. The discs are divided into "Nice" and "Naughty" due to the intensity of the dialogue. The book has 2 pages of great liner notes that explain why what was said was said. It's a must read!
