Sinister: The biography thread...and just where is the needle??!! <g>

Hello Listeees!!

First post...be gentle!

A great bio/rock book in general is Diary of a Rock Star  by Ian Hunter the
lead singer of the seminal glam band   Mott the Hoople. I believe it came out
initally in '73 or'74 or thereabouts, then disappeared...It was a minor
masterpiece!!!    It was his detailing of the bands first US tour   and is has
all the drug/drink/hotel trashings type of excesses told in Ian's wicked
brutal truth style.......Its funny, sad, revealing and it makes u feel as if u
are sitting across from Ian as he tells u all this in some run down breakfast
nook in Gary, Indiana........In a word, this book is the bomb!!

Its been re-released in the UK I know, within the last yr      Damn  I wish we
Yanks could get our grubby mits on it here!!!

Love, Kim

music!!)
