3.0 out of 5 stars poorly written, Oct 16 2004
By 
Hannah Capps (Newport News, VA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Layne Staley, Angry Chair: A Look Inside the Heart & Soul of an Incredible Musician (Paperback)
I feel that this book is inadequately written she places herself too much in the lime light and writes as if she was a member of layne's family. I feel that it was written under delusional connection to the 'soul' of layne. After a while her tone gets to be irritating paralleling his work to the renascence era and going into detail of the drug culture drawing a parallel to her anorexia and layne's heroin addiction. I can say from the standpoint of being a writer, singer and artist myself that if someone were to write a book about me in this fashion I would be greatly upset. I feel that it has done a disservice to layne and his family to be written in such a presumptuous tone. However, the book does contain good information, artwork, and quotes and must be read with a massive grain of salt.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ehhhhh, not too bad, not too good...., April 20 2004
This review is from: Layne Staley, Angry Chair: A Look Inside the Heart & Soul of an Incredible Musician (Paperback)
Being the biggest fan of Layne Staley, I was hoping for alot more from this book. I understand from reading this, it isnt easy to write too much on him, because he basically was very sheltered and private. I just though there was alot in this book that was just page fillers. There was alot of info that frankly had nothing to do with Layne at all, and lost my interest quite a bit. However, there was some good stuff too, and it was cool just to read some his letters and poems. I didnt learn all that nuch I already didnt know, except for his family life. If your a huge fan, I guess its worth the read, if not, you'll probably throw the book away.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a waste., April 20 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Layne Staley, Angry Chair: A Look Inside the Heart & Soul of an Incredible Musician (Paperback)
I feel sorry for anyone who has already wasted the hour it takes to read this miserably written so-called book. Poorly written, uniformative and incoherent best describe this sorry piece of work. Save yourself the money and just listen to some of the great music Layne, Jerry and the guys made over the years.
