I second that. Read it and then listen to the new remastered version of Iggy
and the Stooges' "Raw Power". Trust me on this.
For the English side of the story, Jon Savage's "England's Dreaming :
Anarchy, Sex Pistols, Punk Rock and Beyond" is equally engaging. I really
like that they are both written in that George Plimpton
compiled-from-personal-accounts style.
Speaking of, I came across "Mr. Fluxus" the collective portrait of GM, and
its written like that, except the authors aren't noted in the articles
themselves, just in a footnote section in the back. Very annoying to have to
flip back and forth, but otherwise is an intersting read.
