Yeah, it's in the Anibase. K.A. was a big Stones fan. There's actually several references. Elfangor listens to them on the Taxxon homeworld in Andalite Chronicles, and I think there's a few others.

Yea in The Alien Ax quotes them. Weird though, does that mean Ax is Keith, they both stick a lot of crap into their systems with no self control

Wow. I just found out about this. I never knew the cover was inspired by the Rolling Stones. Ive never been tuned to their music but still, that's AWESOME. It's such a creative portrait and was well used for the last book.

I just wish the last book was a MM5.

Indeed, that has to be one of the best scenes of the series....Elfangor driving a convertible across the desert, drinking Dr. Pepper and listening to "Satisfacton!"  :D

I only recently learned about the cover thing, but I think it's pretty cool! I'll have to show it to my dad sometime...

I feel like an idiot. I had VLC playing and moved it to the corner of the screen. I read the entire article, looked up every keyword I could think of that was relevant to Animorphs. In fact,, it took me ten minutes to minimize the window and see the picture. Pretty awesome though.
