Johnny Thunders: In Cold Blood

Product Description

In Cold Blood is the official biography of Johnny Thunders, one of the most influential and self-destructive figures to emerge from the New York punk scene. Written with direct access to close friends, collaborators, and archival material, the book offers an unvarnished account of Thunders’ life, music, and contradictions.
