And as apprentice to Lester Bangs, boyfriend of Chrissie Hynde, confidant of Iggy Pop, trusted scribe for Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones, and early member of the Sex Pistols, he was witness to both the beautiful and the damned of this turbulent decade.\u003cbr\u003e\n      Review      \u003cbr\u003e\n`Not just a biography but a thriller; a high-octane chase through a decade's musical history.' --NME Magazine\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n`Dispensed with a bleak wit and brutal candour ... this is a book for anyone that's ever read a music magazine from cover to cover but still wanted to know more.' --Q Magazine\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n'Celebrity drug addict and genius wordsmith, he is a man who has lived rock'n'roll to the full.' --Dylan Jones, GQ\u003cbr\u003e\n      Book Description      \u003cbr\u003e\nApathy for the Devil: sixteen years after his seminal rock tome The Dark Stuff, Nick Kent produces a brilliant and very personal despatch: his memoir of the 1970s.\u003cbr\u003e\n      About the Author      \u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2002 Nick Kent was presented with the\u003cbr\u003e\nNME 'God Like Genius' award for his 30-year career as a rock writer.
