About This Item
Anchor Books, New York, 2003, 2003. Soft cover. Very Good. Octavo, softcover, VG in white wraps, unmarked. 407 pp.Singularly entertaining, this book is an absolute must for anyone interested in the history of rock. Before his untimely death in 1982, Lester Bangs was inarguably the most influential critic of rock and roll. Writing in hyper-intelligent Benzedrine prose, he eschewed all conventional thinking as he discussed everything from Black Sabbath being the first truly Catholic band to Anne Murray's smoldering sexuality.
