I've commented various times before that "the late Maurice Sendak" should do the book idea someone suggested.

It does sound nice - though I have wondered before about the legality of referencing other well-known people in band names, even if late.

↳ Song: "August" by "Love"
This (and two other Love songs) is in the recent Leslie Van Houten biopic "Charlie Says".
The album apparently has enjoyed a comeback, what with “Always See Your Face” appearing in 2017’s Oscar-nominated “Lady Bird” (and it was previously in the film “High Fidelity”).

If he had lived to play the reunion tours, how do you think he would've swung with it? Keep the sides of the head with hair, or just shave it all when the baldness became apparent? And I believe his facial hair would definitely be kept, probably a 'stache with soul patch...
