Please Kill Me by Legs Mcneil
Ranks up there with the great rock & roll books of all time.--Time Out New York Lurid, insolent, disorderly, funny, sometimes gross, sometimes mean and occasionally touching . . . Resounds with authenticity.--The New York Times No volume serves juicier dish on punk's New York birth . . . Tales of sex, drugs and music that will make you wish you'd been there.--Rolling Stone A contemporary classic, Please Kill Me is the definitive oral history of the most nihilistic of all pop movements. Iggy Pop, Richard Hell, the Ramones, and scores of other punk figures lend their voices to this decisive account of that explosive era. This 20th anniversary edition features new photos and an afterword by the authors. Utterly and shamelessly sensational.--NewsdayPlease Murder Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk, coauthored by Legs McNeil, is widely regarded as the definitive study on the subject. He is the editor-in-chief of Nerve and the founder of the landmark magazine that gave punk its moniker. He was previously an editor at Spin. Still Insatiable, Marilyn Chambers' comeback picture, was also written by McNeil. He's also the author of The Other Hollywood: The Uncensored Oral History of the Porn Film Industry, which will be released soon. He spends time in both New York and Los Angeles.
