Query: REAL insight into the band

I've read both the Ramones books out so far("An American Band" and "Hey Ho, Let's Go") as well as Dee Dee's two memoirs, but I think Monte's book - which is really an oral history - is actually the best in terms of shedding light on the band's history and personalities. To his credit, everyone gets a fair chance to tell their story, even when it conflicts with someone else's. And many of the stories and photos are something that only an insider like Monte could put on paper. One unfortunate byproduct of the book is that my opinon of Johnny as a person has sunk. While his near-militaristic running of the band was often necessary for them to survive as a unit, he comes off as an angry, bitter man (both in his own words and those of others) who could have certainly been better to his bandmates and the Ramones support crew.
