When The Source Family: The Untold Story of Father Yod, Ya Ho Wa 13 and The Source Family first came onto the scene it made a huge splash, winning the 2008 Independent Publishers Book Award and becoming an LA Times bestseller. The New York Times called the book "a style bible" and Paper magazine revered it as "THE talk of the town." The book has been out of print and in-demand for years and now finally it is coming back to the market with an expanded and revised edition, just in time for the current wave of cult-mania. It was 1972, time of the cult-occult-commune explosion. By day, the Source Family served organic cuisine to John Lennon, Julie Christie, Frank Zappa and others at the famed Source restaurant. By night, in a mansion in Hollywood Hills, they explored the cosmos through the channeled wisdom of their charismatic leader, Father Yod. Father was an outlandish figure who had 14 "spiritual wives," drove a Rolls-Royce, and fronted the rock band Ya Ho Wa 13, now considered by collectors to be one of the most singular psychedelic bands of all time. The Source Family's true story--kept secret for over 30 years after Father's spectacular hang-gliding death in 1975--is revealed here by the Family members themselves, with over 200 photographs and a digital download of rare Ya Ho Wa 13 live performances and Family recordings. This expanded and revised edition has 30 new pages of never-before-seen photographs and additional text containing deeper history and updates on everything that has happened after the first edition. It also contains a new foreword by Jodi Wille, the original editor and director of the critically acclaimed documentary The Source Family.
