I haven't read many "good" biographies about rock stars with
the exception of Peter Guralnick's
Last Train To Memphis
and
Careless Love. Both of which were critical and commercial
successes.
And even those had inaccuracies. Though I'm sure not intentional
ones. I wish an author the caliper of Guralnick would tackle a
biography about Stevie.
Come to think of it, if we want the truth it might be better if Stevie's
not involved. So Steven/Stephen write on about the Gold Dust Woman.
I'm sure I'll pick up a copy.
