If you run across Alice Cooper's autobiography, Me, Alice, buy it without hesitation. There was only one printing that I'm aware of, and even a tattered copy can fetch $500 or more on ebay. An autographed copy with the jacket can fetch $3K or more. I have a perfect copy with the jacket (no autograph) that my brother bought for $3 at a used book store.

Amazon Used books list copies at around $600.

 

Not out of print, and easily and reasonably acquired, another couple of biographical books worth a look/read/listen (audiobook), is "The Real Frank Zappa" which covers a lot, including his much-overlooked and undervalued successful activism for free speech.  And, "My Effin' Life by Geddy Lee.  His story needs another volume as Rush regroups on it's current tour and new drummer.  But the prior years are worth reading.  Neil Peart's writings, of course, are legendary!

@Charlie, Love the Thorogood.  When he pops on SiriusXM, these two always rock out, kick back, turn on the Carver and pour a bourbon, or two, neat.

I don't know why....but this song has always spoken to me.  I was reminded of that when I picked up some new vinyl today... Speaking in Tongues.  It's a very simple song, musically.  Until today (when I actually decided to look up the lyrics and meaning), I'd always thought the song had some deep poetic meaning.  It really doesn't.  It's just a love song.  But, it persists as one of the Talking Heads best ever.  David Byrne still plays it as he tours.  Sean Penn made a whole movie with the same title and the song included (and David Byrne is in the movie).  I guess it spoke to a lot of people.
