Books like Me, Alice: The Autobiography of Alice Cooper

I'm a huge fan of almost all Alice Cooper's music, but I honestly don't care much for Alice Cooper the man until sometime in the mid-90's. If nothing else, this book shows how much Alice has matured in the intervening years. These days, Alice is something of an enigma--his stage persona is completely opposite from his real-life personality. In ME, ALICE, however, Alice portrays himself as being just the sort of debauched rock personality that his conservative-minded critics made him out to be.This book is long out-of-print, and it's pretty easy to see why. No doubt the present-day Alice Cooper is embarrassed and possibly shamed by his 1970's counterpart. ME, ALICE is a vapid, self-indulgent account of rock star excess. While the present-day Alice Cooper is known for demonstrating admirable restraint in both his professional and personal lives, the Alice Cooper of the 1970's can't wait to inform readers of his peculiar masturbatory habits and share with them intricate details of his boob-fondling experiences as a teenager. The quality of writing in this book varies from childish to awful, so I was surprised to see that Alice had worked on it with a co-author.Now that Alice has released a much more current and readable autobiography (entitled GOLF MONSTER), there is very little reason to invest your time in ME, ALICE. And I say that as a huge Alice Cooper fan who went into the book expecting to love it.
