Has anyone read any Lester Bangs books? I've been meaning to pick one up and was just wondering if anybody had any suggestions?

Psychotic Reactions and Carbeurator (sp?) Dung is a pretty good collection. He can make you think you might wanna listen to Metal Machine Music.

Hey jimmy: how is this one? I've been working on Infinite Jest for about a year+ (the thing's gotta weight 8-9 lbs.) and dig his style.

 

Also: I highly recommend , which tells the story of JW Boothe's assination on Lincoln and the 12 day manhunt for him. It's non-fiction and reads like a novel, with diresct quotes from all people involved. A great historic read that really flows....
