Stephen asks--

Nick Tosches has written a number of wonderful (and perverse) books on
popular music. Among those books are the recently reprinted _Country :
the twisted roots of rock 'n' roll_, _Dino : living high in the dirty
business of dreams_ (great biography about Dean Martin), _Hellfire : the
Jerry Lee Lewis story_, and _Unsung heroes of rock 'n' roll_ (with the
infamous Louis Prima/Keeley Smith story--read it yourself to find out). 
He has also published another work of fiction, _Cut numbers_.  Tosches
may not be totally accurate in the things he says about music, but
everything he's written is well worth reading.
