And it is becoming more and more evident that his achievement endures….Nobody has ever departed with such language for such a destination…..Mitchell is a joker, a lyrics writer, a word-spinner, an epigrammist, a man of passion and imagination….Against the present British state he opposes a kind of revolutionary populism, bawdiness, wit and the tenderness sometimes to be found between animals. --John Berger This is Adrian Mitchell, the British Mayakovsky.

"California, Labor Day weekend . . . early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy Levis roll out from damp garages, all-night diners and cast-off one-night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur. . .
The Menace is loose again. " Thus begins Hunter S. Thompson's vivid account of his experiences with California's most no-torious motorcycle gang, the Hell's Angels.
