Only the Good Die Young : The Rock n Roll Book of the Dead

Part elegy, with affectionate portraits of the lives of stars like Hank Williams, Buddy Holly, and John Lennon, who were real national heroes, and part autopsy report, whit grisly details of the excesses or bad luck that led to the death of the geniuses of self-abuse. Sid Vicious, Keith Moon, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison.
