 KJ were my introduction to Crowley, and without going
too deep into the topic onlist (cos I can hear " Ach!
here he goes again!" on the lips of many a Gatherer
who's been here for awhile. I guess I'm a bit
"notorious" when the topic of Uncle Al comes up.)
there are a glut of lyrics, song titles, interviews
etc. that show Jaz's "Thelemic leanings" up until
around the BTATS era.

 Jaz seems to have broadened his spiritual horizons at
that point, although lines from The Book of the Law
(which is where the Fall of Because line originates.)
are scattered throughout the next few albums and have 
even surfaced in the film that he did recently ("Drink
wines that foam. Take strange drugs they shall not
harm ye at all...is a lie") The Year of the Devil I
believe it was called?

 I was looking forward to talking to Jaz about all
things Metaphysic at the recent SF show, but Jello
Biafra wedged himself between us!
 Oh well, age before beauty as they say. ;)

 Feel free to contact me offlist if you'd like more
info.

"The scene was wild and somewhat sinister. The
darkness, the palms, the mountainous background, the
silent lake below, the impenetrable canopy of space,
studded with secretive and significant stars, formed a
stupendous setting for the savage noise and blaze of
the ceremony."
