Music Bios

Post by Chauncey »

I love music bios. I don't even have to like the band to enjoy the bio.

here are some of my favorites:

Up and Down with the rolling Stones

Crazy from the Heat by David Lee Roth (total guilty pleasure. Dude is a complete nut job. see: worst book you have read all the way through thread)

Chronicles by Bob Dylan

Please Kill Me: An Oral History of Punk

Walk This Way by "Areosmith" with Steven Davis (I had to read this if only because it was suposedly written by the band. Turns out its written oral history style like Please Kill me. Areosmith is one of the most pompus bands in the history of rock.)
