    James Ellroy - My Dark Places. Awesome book.
    Obree one stood out for cycling, Muhammad Ali (Thomas Hauser I think), Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison (preferred the Danny Sugerman one).

    Malcolm X, David Niven - both interesting especially 'X'
    Frank Skinner - very funny & quite moving in places.
    All worth a read.

    I tend to read novels.

    Bruce Springsteen (all of them)
    Keith Richards, by Victor Bockris
    Mick Jagger (can't remember the author, but it was not very good, too tabloidish)
    Stone Alone, by Bill Wynan, the best Rolling Stones book ever.
    I'm with the Band (Pamela des Barres)
    Shakey (Neil Young's biography)
    John Steinbeck's biography, but didn't finish reading it!
    Boy Racer (Mark Cavendish)

    Also lots of oither books about the Stones (1976 US tour, the recording of Exile on Main Street, etc.), and other books about Springsteen.

    He really was mental.
