Blondie by Lester Bangs

Requirements:  .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader

Overview:  Legendary US rock writer Lester Bangs may have written regularly for Creem and Rolling Stone but he only ever wrote one book, this biography of Blondie released in the UK by Omnibus in 1980. Lester Bangs is kind of the Norman Mailer of rock journalism, and Debbie is his Marilyn. Only instead of Debbie being his muse, she seems to have become the target for all his frustrated ambition! Confessedly jealous of Blondie's success, as Lester hung out on the periphery of the CBGS's scene and had a band of his own that went nowhere, there also seems to be a note of misogyny in his tone. Not that he's an all-out woman hater, more like he is threatened by the idea of a beautiful but unavailable woman.
