ha - i'll probably get a gift card...

Clothes, Clothes, Clothes. Music, Music, Music. Boys, Boys, Boys. by Viv Albertine of the Slits looks great.

alex chilton and john fahey bios are both good, though depressing.

i read do not sell at any price -- it's good! the part where she scuba dives for sunken 78s is kind of like "i am doing this for my book" but otherwise it is entertaining, lots of weirdo characters.
