Lonely Boy

This is a great book to read if you are a fan of rock biographies, The Sex Pistols, or Steve Jones himself. I also found it an excellent exposition of British life in the sixties and seventies. Unlike most history books, it actually gives you a feel for what life was like for working class people at the time, and the role of music in their culture.

However, this is best viewed as a commentary on the Sex Pistols story you already know. It is light on dates and locations although it's not the kind of poetic memoir that's become fashionable lately. So if you already know the Sex Pistols story and want Steve's take on it, this is an excellent book.
