cnadeau 's review for:
Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung
by Lester Bangs
One of my all time favorite books, so my review will be undoubtedly filled with gushing bias and admiration...
Record reviews and cultural criticism in the hands of a burroughs fanatic. I'm not saying doc benway makes any appearances or anything, but... oh wait, he does. The amazing quality of Bangs' writing hinged on his ability to believe one hundred percent in the opinions he strove to prove, question himself in the process (while still believing in himself without question) and completely flip flop his opinion to something different a month later.
His early appreciation for iconoclastic underground rock/punk figures like Iggy Pop/ Lou Reed and screaming about forgotten heroes of the mid 60s like the Troggs or the Count Five... his voice howled the truth by way of the underground of the counterculture in the wilderness of the bloviating mainstream 70s.
