Look who's talking about The Evolution of a Cro-Magnon.
Adam Yauch (Beastie Boys)
"As I read the first few chapters, tears welled up in my eyes. A lot of people talk about coming from the streets, when Bloodclot says it, shit is real. I have tremendous respect for John, all that he's endured, and who he has become and I would recommend this book to anyone in a heartbeat."
Googie (drummer for the Misfits)
"I saw John when he was a kid back in the seventies hanging out with all those junkies in Rockaway and I thought...this kid'll be dead soon. Only by the grace of God could he ever make it out of that world. Hare Krishna!!!"
Jamey Jasta (host MTV's "Headbanger's Ball" / singer Hatebreed)
"John’s stories are vivid and compelling. From the first page I felt like I was there. John is a survivor; he has lived it and his words are a testament to the code of the streets. He's a living legend and a righteous and real cat. Read this now and take a look into his world."
Patty Jenkins (writer / director "Monster")
"John has the rare ability to give a truly authentic glimpse into the evolution of the American hardcore scene, and the forces that shaped it, and put it in the context of a much larger story of the human spirit that the scene attracted. For anyone interested in the real deal, this book is a must read."
Dito Montiel (writer / director "A Guide to Recognizing your Saints")
"Felt I was sneaking a peak into a secret unkept memoir documenting a very special time rarely mentioned."
Sascha Jenkins (author "Big Book of Racism")
"John Bloodclot's reality is the stuff that Hollywood lives for. But after the cameras are gone, and the soundtrack goes platinum, there stands a man whose character is far taller and more Technicolor than any trifling Tinseltown tale."
Morgan Spurlock (writer / director "Super Size Me")
"Crack the cover and inside you will find the story of someone who the odds were against from the beginning, someone who fought his way to success and someone who continues to give back to his community to this day."
Moby
"John Joseph's book is an amazing story of a man brought up in terrible circumstances who was able to transcend adversity through intelligence, humor and music."
