Review: i though this book was amazing and was so happy i bought it! the pictures are great and tell so much about the individual members of the band, the band history, and the sad ending of everything. i especially liked the candid photos of rotten (page 89 is, well, what can i say? i love him) and the rest of the group (page 91 and 93 are halarious and kinda show the group dynamic), and the amazing photos of the original fans. this book is great!

Review: Stunningly beautiful black-and-white photos fill this book from cover to cover. Some are familliar, most were new to me. Most of the focus is on Rotten, although Sid and the rest of the band members each have their chance to shine. The book documents their travels and travails through the year 1977, ending just before the American tour when things went completely out the window. Poor Sid, you can actually see him going down hill. There is no text, only some very brief descriptions of each photograph at the very end of the book. I wonder about the amount of trouble each band member went to over the slovenly aspect of their appearance, because they all come off looking like very attractive young men. Many people seem to think of Rotten as ugly and gross (including Rotten himself, apparently). May I refer these people to page 28/29 of the book. I defy you to find one single thing ugly about this man. (sigh) Completely worth the money, this book lived up to all my expectations. Buy it now.
