I picked up the Jack Johnson biography this past week (Natural Born Man, by Marc Shapiro), its not to bad, just wondering if anyone else had some suggestions for books to read. I’ve heard Scar Tissue is a good biography. Read Miles, the Miles Davis biography last summer, holy crap, that book was deep, got lost at times, but definitely interesting. Loved how everone in the book was a “motherfucker”, he used it as a compliment at times and a put down at others, haha, so got a good laugh out of that.

Eric Claptons auto-bio was a good read, his fisrt wife also wrote one about there time together that I heard was good called Wonderful Tonight. I haven’t had a chance to read it though. I’m a fiction person mainly so if you have any suggs. in that area throw them at me. I’m a total bookworm. Yay for me being a nerd….
