As anyone that has even glanced at my blog knows I like to listen to music and I also like to write about it. A lot of the facts I get on obscure music trivia are from my library of books on music and musicians. So today's 13 is going to be a random listing of 13 books from my Music Reference Library.

3. Blue Monday and the Lost Dawn of Rock and Roll by Rick Coleman

4. Glory Days: The Bruce Springsteen Story, Volume 1 by Dave Marsh

5. Can't Be Satisfied: The Life and Times of Muddy Waters by Robert Gordon

6. The Beatles by Hunter Davies

7. Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung by Lester Bangs

Yea! I love Wilco! And they're going to be at Voodoo Fest. I've seen them twice so far and had tickets for the show they canceled a few years back.

That's a great list - my library is sadly lacking in this area, which is odd because of how much I love music and dance.
