KINKS KRONIKLES by John Mendelssohn

Finished Sa 11/5/16

This is one of my trade-sized paperbacks that I carried in my work bag for about a week, and finished Th 7/13/16. But, I had owned the book for years.

My impression this time-

Somewhat a biography of the band but dangerously close to a mere collection of reviews of the songs on the record albums. Also, it's pretty dated since it ends in the early 80's, and I wonder what has happened in the last thirty five years.

The last paragraph of the book is the best- "Nobody changes all that much".
