Damn, this was going to be my recommendation. One of the best factual books I've ever read. It fuelled my Johnny Thunders obsession. I've only got the one on Meat Is Murder by Joe Pernice, but I've seen a number of others that look interesting. Overall, hefty good list you've got yourself there! I wouldn't recommend Nikki Sixx's Heroin Diaries. I have no interest in Motley Crue but the malevolent "Ooh, hardback book for a fiver!" part of my brain took over and I ended up buying it, getting 3/4 of the way through before giving up out of sheer boredom. Summary: Every night Sixx writes in his diary about how he's just shot up, imagined midgets and Mexicans and police with shotguns outside his house ready to come in, he flushes his drugs, then hides in his closet with his shotgun. He gets clean, the end.
