Library Journal

Rereleased to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the subject's death, this 1989 title purports to be the definitive biography of punk rocker Sid Vicious. Parker goes beyond the stage image to present a different view of Sid as really not that vicious at all and flatly denies that the singer murdered his girlfriend, naming instead the person he claims is the real killer. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
