This book tells the exciting story of American punk rock. Because the authors only used quotes from eyewitnesses, the book almost reads like a novel. In chronological order, quotations seamlessly follow one another, as if the interviewees were sitting around a large table to share their stories. The reader plunges into the crazy world of rock & amp; roll, with all its joys and dark sides. Because life's mostly a bitch. What the music rebels wanted was authenticity, not a fairy tale. Reports, anecdotes, and memories from people like Wayne Kramer, Patty Smith, Jim Carol, and Dee Dee Ramon form a brilliant kaleidoscope, concerning that part of American music history that began in the Sixties, as Velvet Underground gathered their first concert experiences in Warhol's factory environment. Stories about MC5 from Detroit and their "Little Brother Band" Iggy and the Stooges are also extensively covered. There are stories about the Toy Dolls, the Ramones, the Blondies, etc., and, of course, the legendary CBGB club must not be omitted. "Please Kill Me" is an entertaining and informative reading experience, which also gives a lot of pleasure to put on your old records again.
