I VERY MUCH ENJOYED THIS BOOK, AS A TRIBUTE TO WARREN!I AM A BIG FAN OF HIS MUSIC, LYRICS, AND SUTTLE HUMOR. I VERY MUCH ENJOYED READING ABOUT HIS PERCEPTION ON VARIOUS ACTIVITIES IN HIS LIFE....I COULD ALSO RELATE TO HIS STORIES, AS I WAS LUCKY TO SEE HIM PERFORM TWICE- FIRST TIME IN BANGOR, MAINE AS PART OF THE 'ROCK BOTTOM REMADERS" WHICH HE TALKS ABOUT IN THE BOOK..HIS IMPRESSION OF BANGOR, THE PAUL BUNYUN STATUE, AND STEPHEN KINGS HOUSE...i WAS LIVING IN BANGOR BACK THEN SO I COULD RELATE TO WHAT HE WAS SAYING... THE SECOND TIME I SAW HIM WAS A SOLO PERFORMANCE AT THE PARSDISE ROCK CLUB IN BOSTON, AND EVEN MET WARREN AFTER THE SHOW ON THE STRETS OF BOSTON. AUTOGRAPHS AND PHOTOS AND A VERY TREASURED MEMORY! SOME SADNESS IN THE READING, BUT ALSO SOME RELIEF AS YOU GET TO UNDERSTAND HE LIVED HIS LIFE HOW HE WAnted! great book for warren fans!

Great subject ruined by poor writing & editing. This book was a chore to read, with the best part being the pictures.
