i know this should be in the book forum, but i figured more people would have read them here, but are the Motley Crue and Marilyn Manson biogs worth buying. i bought the slipknot "Behind the Masks, Underneath the Sickness" (or something to that effect) and it was pretty good (even though i lost it).

yeah i read "Kurt Cobain" and "Come As You Are," both good books, but theres a million Nirvana biogs

I have read both Marylin Manson "The Cold Hard Road out of Hell"(sic) and The Dirt about Motley Crue. Both are amazing books, very funny, interesting and some of the stories are unbelievable.
Other great music books are :
Walk This Way (about Aerosmith)
Englands Dreaming by John Savage (about the british punk movement.)
Please Kill Me (about the US punk Movement)
Hammer of the Gods (about Led Zeppelin)
Freaky Dancing ( about Bez and the Happy Mondays)
and i would say Heavier than Heaven is the best book about Nirvana.
'Catch A Fire - The Life of Bob Marley' by Timothy White is an excellent in-depth history on Jamaican culture, the rise of Reggae and Rastafarianism. It also has some fascinating things to relate about the legend that is Bob.
