Ditto on the LCD book, it's great.
I finished Jim DeRogatis' Turn on Your Mind: Four Decades of Great Psychedelic Rock and it was OK, though his definition of the word "psychedelic" seems somewhat, shall we say, fungible. As MOS said on Facebook, it should really be called "Justifying My Record Collection." He blathers on about PM Dawn but largely ignores the Wu-Tang Clan, arguably the most psychedelic hip-hop group ever, at least if we use DeRogatis' definition of it (in a nutshell: using the studio to create an alternate reality in the mind of the listener). And I love Wire and The Feelies, but it's a stretch to say they're more psychedelic than the Grateful Dead. Still and all, there's some great stuff in it, especially the parts about The Beach Boys, Love, The 13th Floor Elevators, Lenny Kaye, and Eno.
Currently reading Carl Wilson's 33 1/3 book on Celine Dion. A pretty amazing piece of criticism and philosophy, and actually making me kind of like her.
