Book Reviews of Whores: An Oral Biography of Perry Farrell and Jane's Addiction
Book Review: Oral bio of Jane's Addiction
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book. Of course, you probably need to like Jane's Addiction first, which I do, I love them, their music, so brief in period of time and so long ago, nonetheless, is so spiritual and wonderful. This book details the musical backgrounds of Navarro, Perkins and Eric Avery, and also, a bit of Perry's lifestyle that really allowed all of this to happen. There's a lot of information in this book. You also get a lot of insight into the Los Angeles cultural scene of the 80s; all the different clubs involved; music industry stuff; and input from fellow musicians, like RHCP and even GNR! It's quite an inspiring book. If there's one thing readers should take away, it is the creative spirit that is the thread of all these topics, and I hope people everywhere can strive to be as creative as these individuals.
