Sohrab Habibion and Johnny Temple are here to discuss the book, Plenty for All: The Art of Rick Fröberg, how they each met and got to know Rick and how this book came to be, the role the late Rich Jacobs played in this project, how this book and the zine that’s part of the deluxe edition might surprise Rick’s fans, the story of Akashic Books and why Sohrab thought it was the perfect home for Rick’s art, Rick’s different names and a surprising umlaut, upcoming book and live music events that commemorate this book, whether we may hear unreleased music by Rick’s bands like Hot Snakes and Obits someday soon, Fake Names and Savak updates, a by now unsurprising tangent about the Doors, new Akashic titles, other future plans, and much more.
