Title: Fun read about the early history of the Kingsmen
Product review: Dick Peterson's book chronicls the early history of the Kingsmen (in particular 1963 and 1964), and the central role that they played in the history of the song, Louie Louie. Although Dick wasn't part of the band when Louie Louie was recorded, he joined very shortly thereafter, and does a good job of providing the back-story from before he joined. The insights regarding the FBI's investigation of Louie Louie are particularly interesting. And he tells a lot of fun stories along the wayFor those interested in the fascinating history of Louie Louie, this book serves as a nice companion to Dave Marsh's bookLouie Louie: The History and Mythology of the World's Most Famous Rock 'n Roll Song; Including the Full Details of Its Torture and Persecution at the Hands ... Introducing for the First Time Anywhere, the.Perhaps the editing of the book could have been a bit tighter. But overall, it was well worth it and very enjoyable. I highly recommend it.
