Mark Lanegan's autobiography

[borolad259]

I was told last year that this would be extraordinary (bleak). Haven't got the gumption to read it myself yet, but this interview makes me think I should. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/...rview-memoir-kurt-cobain-layne-staley-978123/

I can't say that junkie writing interests me but, by all accounts, the book is extraordinary.

Might get this loved Screaming Trees and Bubblegum is one of my favourite ever albums.

You see all of that entire scene I liked at the time, but now it's completely unlistenable to me save for a very tracks (mainly Dinosaur Jr ones).

However I think it'll be really interesting to read about the entire scene from someone who was there and central to it.

Thanks for the heads up on the book. As someone who comes from an earlier generation I stumbled across his music when I was around 50 and was very lucky to see him at the cockpit in Leeds. Just love his music probably due to the bluesy feel he puts into it.

Haha. Seems like he's a good judge of character.

It's brutally funny. He's not pulling any of his punches. :LOL:
