Summary/Abstract: I know this will affect you deeply; maybe it’s going to hurt. You can even say that you don’t want to see it,” a male voice says on the telephone. It is decidedly awkward, almost apologetic. But not as awkward as my reaction. “Let’s meet,” I reply finally, but arrange an appointment a good time later, not really sure what to expect. The reason this journalist I do not know called me was that he came across secret police reports on me while gathering material for a book on the 1970s rock-and-roll scene.
