	ARSENAL
		Called "Lost Arrow," young Roy's life sadly mirrored his name: a reclusive loner, he receded into his own body, opting mainly to spend time training himself to be a strong athlete, a competent hunter and, with Brave Bow's tutelage, a skillful archer.
		Though initially annoyed with Roy's idolization of Star City's resident crime-fighter, Green Arrow, Brave Bow sought out the hero's assistance, and, after a carefully orchestrated archery contest (which Roy lost, due to magnitized arrowheads), Roy was spirited away to California by his new guardian, The Green Arrow's alter-ego, wealthy businessman Oliver Queen.
		Roy seemed to take their mentor, Loren Jupiter, and his lessons in peaceful co-existence and non-powered self-reliance to heart, even learning enough patience to extend compassion to both an upset Aqualad and the ever-troublesome Hawk.

		Roy's 1971 album Stormcock is underrated but every bit as classic (and more so in my opinion) as albums like Zoso, Who's Next, Dark Side of the Moon, and Freewheelin' Bob Dylan.
		only four songs (long ones), but in those four songs are all the qualities for which one listens to roy harper: the intense vocals; the layering of voices; crazy, wonderful, and perfect (atypical/close/shocking) harmonies; that ringing guitar; the sheer poetry of the lyrics.
		I was (and am) a quietly dedicated Roy Harper fan, and I purchased all his releases that were available to me in Australia.

		Harper's Burn the World consists of two versions of the title track, one studio, the other live (recorded at the Bloomsbury Theatre, London).
		The studio cut is the original demo Harper presented to EMI records; they rejected it, stating it lacked commercial appeal.
		Energetic and driving (so much so that he breaks a string during the song), Harper's guitar work and vocals are superior to the studio take.
