White Line Fever (Lemmy Kilmister)
|
"I, Shithead" by Joey Shithead is the only one I've read.
And I didn't finish it yet. |
Elliott Smith and the Big Nothing is really good, the Bob Dylan chronicles are amazing. I like reading music biographies, I don't like Hendrix but I gained a bunch of respect for him after reading his. I use to have respect for Jim Morrison after reading his i've decided he was just a dick. Cash is great.

Motley Crue's The Dirt was pretty good.
Marilyn Manson's was a disappointment. |
thats because manson is a disappointment...
|
Scar Tissue-Anthony Kiedis-brutally honest with no self pitying.
