This is the quote from Harp_L digest

I finally tracked down the novel 'Falling Angel' by William Herze...? (Sorry). It's the novel that inspired 'Angelheart' - and quite a damn good read too.

The scene where Harry Angel visits Epiphany Proudfoot he uses the excuse he came to buy some 'John the Conqueror Root' from her herbal store. From the humour between them my guess it was an aphrodisiac - Epiphany tells Harry he needs as much as he can get...

So I was pleasantly suprised ...on my Muddy Waters 'King of the Electric Blues'to hear Muddy say HE had it - or is he REALLY saying Johnny Cockeroon?' Quote ends.
