Inspired by the album, I have re-read Cope's book on Liverpool, the early Teardrop Explodes and the early part of his solo career. No doubt he is very busy, but hopefully a new volume of autobiography will appear at some point. I have also bought Copendium - a collection of his online music reviews. I have heard of a handful of the bands reviewed and even have one or two of the records - not many though

Julian Cope - books and CDs
One recent download from emusic.com was Julian Cope's Psychedelic Revolution. Despite having been a huge Cope fan for years, I was amazed at just how good this album is. I really like at least 9 of the 11 tracks and the other 2 aren't that bad! Particular favourites are the tracks Roswell and As the beer flows over me. I have probably heard the album a dozen times now, perhaps the most times I have listened to any album this year. Excellent stuff.
