NEIL YOUNG

NO MUSIC 'CRITIC' THESE SAYS, I THINK, REALLY KNOWS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 'IMAGE'
AND WHAT IS 'REAL', OR GOES BEYOND THAT, UNSPARINGLY (AND QUITE HUMOROUSLY) PORTRAYING
MEMBERS OF THE 'ROCK SCENE' AS THE PEOPLE THEY REALLY ARE
THAT IS JUST TOO BAD, IT MAKES FOR A COTERIE OF ASS-LICKERS, IN WITH THE 'MUSIC BUSINESS',
AND NOT INTERESTED IN TELLING THEIR READERS WHAT THOSE READERS HAVE BOUGHT THE BOOKS,
OR READ THE ARTICLES: THE REAL 'DIRT' IS WHAT
ANYWAY I JUST READ ON MY KINDLE FOR PC NICK KENT'S 'THE DARK STUFF: SELECTED WRITINGS ON ROCK MUSIC',
WITH A PREFACE BY IGGY POP, THANK YOU NICK, IT WAS EVERYTHING (AND MORE) THAT I WAS HOPING IT TO BE
THE WHOLE THING WAS 'GRRREAT!'
THE PARTS I RELISHED THE MOST WERE THOSE ON THE ROLLING STONES, IGGY POP, ROY ORBISON, AND NEIL
YOUNG (I'VE GOT AS FAR AS NEIL SO FAR)
BEING AN AVID FAN OF R&R ALL MY LIFE, I NEVER BOUGHT THAT 'IMAGE', SO DEFTLY MANUFACTURED IN THE
SOLE INTEREST OF RECORD SALES
NOW THAT I AM 64 YEARS OLD AND (PRETTY MUCH) CONFINED TO MY APARTMENT (I REALLY LIKE IT THAT WAY) ALL
OF THE TIME, I HAVE NOT (APPARENTLY) FORGOTTEN WHAT 'GOT ME OFF' ABOUT ROCK AND ROLL, THANK YOU
YEAH, I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!
THANKS AGAIN, NICK!
