Anthony Keidis "Scar Tissue"

This one is good.

Recently I've read Mustaines book and Duff McKagens book. Both were a good read.
 
Aerosmith- walk this way. Im a huge Aerosmith fan. Ive re read this 3 times. Love it. Right now im reading the Keith Richards book. And a Bon Scott book. I have the cro magnon book to. But didnt start it yet.
 
Aldo Get in the Van. The black flag story. Ive re read that prolly 5 times. And own the dvd to listen to it while im driving. A must.
 
Rex browns book makes me laugh sometimes. When he tries to tell you he never bought dope, he is lying his ass off. Great book tho....

If you read black tooth grin, it really tells the story of dime well. No b.s candy coating that happens after someone dies and is elevated to god status. Tells the early story best by someone local who watched him grow...somewhat. Great stories from people who were there. I know,cause for some of them I was there too.

Lemmy's book is funny as hell.
 
Eric Clapton's autobiography is really good and interesting. Lord of Chaos is also a good read about the rise of Norwegian black metal. I'm not really into black metal but it was a good read.
 
Recently enjoyed Glen Hughes and Sammy Hagars books, especially Glen's........
Keith Richards book not so much.....A bit long winded IMO.......
 
Mark Evan's book, Dirty Deeds, was a fun insight into AC/DC's early years and the interesting dynamic of the young brothers. Also his relationship with Bon.

He does end the book a little abruptly around a very sad subject though. If you're sensitive to the loss of a child I would skip the end.
 
The Dirt is a must read.
Heroin Diaries is good
Ace's book
Nothing to Lose: the making of Kiss is good
Sammy's book is good
