I'm currently reading a rather entertaining and edifying autobiography by Marc Almond called 'Tainted Life'.
Previously I thoroughly enjoyed 'Pigs Might Fly', the story of Pink Floyd. Whilst not really being into their overblown musical output I was somehow drawn into their soap opera of disfunction, having received said book as a misguided birthday present.
To follow that, I read 'The Saga Of Hawkwind', by Carol Clerk. Similar period - similar ground breaking visuals driven big psychedelic band. The poor communication between members. Similar interference from loved ones. But without the yachts. Recommended.
Contented yet cantankerous, happy:sad, optimistic yet resigned, in search of something but with no idea what it is, dismayed that people so easily let the wool get pulled over their eyes.

I got the Kirsty book off your desk (NICE OFFICE BTW) and promptly lent it to Derek so I didn't have to lug it all the way home in my suitcase!
