Top 5 Rock Bios that you want to read or have read (or a combination of both)
Do know that I'm quite fond of a great rock and roll read!
A couple of my favorites that I recommend and not in any necessary order:
1. Chronicles Vol 1 (Bob Dylan)
2. Hammer Of The Gods (Led Zeppelin) by Stephen Davis
3. I, Me, Mine (George Harrison)
4. Love, Janis (Janis Joplin) by Laura Joplin
5. The Dirt (Motley Crue) *tied with* The Heroin Diaries (Nikki Sixx)
Runners up:
Keith Richards by Victor Bockris
Journals (Kurt Cobain)
Break On Through (Jim Morrison) by James Riordan
Stoned by Andrew Loog Oldham
The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell (Marilyn Manson)
Dear Boy: The Life of Keith Moon (Keith Moon) by Tony Fletcher
I'm always up for your recommendations too and looking forward to seeing the answers to this week's meme!
I have several I want to read but won't get into them here. Now get thee to Amazon and get reading!
