Customer Reviews

Funniest book I've ever read

This was the funniest book I've ever read. I suppose you have to be able to remember something of the late 60's and early 70's to think so, but there you have it. If you get a huge kick out of Lester Bangs, you'll love this book. It's not all about music, tho, in case that's an issue.

the most influential book...ever!

After it was reissued in '91, "Gulcher" was the main spark that sent me down the wayward path of becoming a rock critic--a horribly self-destructive vocation that I am proud to have all but escaped from since. Foisted my copy of the book upon some so-called friend a couple years later...still waiting for its return. Memories of the book remain fond, though.
