Re: any one ever read 'jagger'?

I read this book back in June of 93 or whenever... it was a month before it was actually published. I picked it up at a used bookstore owned by a guy who previews books for a living. So yeah, I read it about 12 years ago and enjoyed it, although I remember it had the usual "unauthorized" bio mistakes, like the wrong names of solo albums, etc... There was another VERY similar bio of MJ that came out like the next year... called "Mick Jagger" I think, with a similar silvery spine and red lettering, with similar mistakes, and with all the same kind of "Mick is a foolish baby who cheats and cries about it" kind of dissing.
I still enjoy the bios, though... They can be fun, despite the bad research and lousy attitudes.
