“Tedious tale about a junkie who used to know musicians”
Written on: 29/04/2014 by LaneHart (1 review written)
Mislead by the title and by some of the reviews, I bought this book expecting to read about Sugerman getting mixed up with the excesses of The Doors and Iggy Pop while working as their manager. Instead, I got an autobiographic, tedious tale about a junkie who used to know famous musicians. Readers should be warned that in this sloppily written book, rock'n'roll is relegated to the background. The story is strictly autobiographical about Sugerman, a rich teenager with daddy issues who got… Read Full Review

“Wonderland Avenue - a must read”
Written on: 03/09/2012
One of my absolute favorite reads of all time. I have read it at least 6 times for the main reason that I can relate on so many levels. Danny is a fantastic writer and I'm sad he did not write more. I liked this book more than No On Gets Out Of Here Alive. It just holds my attention more and I love the way Jim Morrison is painted in the background. So mortal. So human. It's a side of Jim we never get to see anywhere else… Read Full Review

It played out like a movie with a fantastic soundtrack… Read Full Review

“This book was great! I found a second-hand copy of it...”
Written on: 14/11/2008 by Rebecca Cooper (1 review written)
This book was great! I found a second-hand copy of it at a flea market and I have read it over and over...Danny Sugarman's autobiography is nothing short of laughs and sadness.
I laughed when he wrote about his pet python, Mr Big, and cried when he wrote about his awful father, and even his own stepfather.
This is a must read if you want to get a real insight to what life was like for a teenager during the late '60's and early '70's in rock 'n rollin' LA…
