[Tosh]

A dynamite book full of great images of Warhol and Co. circ the mid-60's. Just right before he got shot. The photographer Nat Finkelstein must have been like a fly in the wall - and the shots he got are really terrifric. What is unusual is that there are some photos in color - and rarely does one see Warhol in colkor in the 60's. Think about it!

[AC Church]

As Lou Reed has wonderfully put it about the other book with Finkelstein's pictures: "Lousy text, great photos". This book also has great photos (of great people) and it's also slightly marred by a lousy text: Finkelstein's own misanthropic, profane scribblings.

Pictures - 5 stars
Text - 3 stars - He kinda came off kinda jilted

.... and there is more the 1 page

this is a great one for photos and movie stills.

Honestly the best example of a terrible narrator. His photography is impressive from a historical standpoint, but Finkelstein is genuinely just someone trying to make some creditable society stardom with his very brief interactions with Andy Warhol.
