There is a pic of Rick James and someone that appears to be Phyllis Hyman on page 147 however, it says it's Angela Bofill. What do you think? I just received it in the mail today and I can't wait to read it. What are your thoughts on the book in general?

It was damn hard getting a copy, everybody's all out. I managed to sneak my order in fast enuff to grab one at Amazon, had to order twice though. First time around they informed that they couldn't fulfill my order after about 2 weeks wait. After reading the email, I immediately logged on to Amazon and checked the book's availability again and they had one in stock. I placed an order and got a confirmation that the book had been sent to me. It arrived this morning, I opened the package about 20 min ago

Ah, looks like other bookstores have finally gotten the book too,
http://www.amazon.com/gp/...132&sr=8-1

There are 9 sellers, at the moment.

Some fucktard is trying to sell the book for 987.65

I got the book a few days ago,but haven't had time to sit down and read it.

I'm just waiting for the book to be in stores or maybe to the point that the store can order it for me. Andy don't order shit off the internet. Nobody's gonna fuck my credit card up.

I ordered mine from Amazon too . I received it yesterday. It actually came in the mail pretty fast. Once you all get a chance....look at the pic on page 147. I know that has to be Phyllis Hyman and not Angela Bofill as stated. I hope there are not a ton of errors in the book. The proofreader should have definitely caught that.

Almost a thousand dollars for a book??? Maybe I should email the seller and ask them if they are serious ...especially a new book that just came out and will be sold numerous places at a reasonable price. You would think that the book was signed by Rick or was his original writings.

Go ahead...buy the book online ...just kidding. I shop a lot online and have saved so much money in the process, however, I do understand your concern.

Yeah that's Phyllis in that pick with the "GLOW" 1985 version of Rick. There's also another pic in the book with Rick and Narada Michael Walden and it says, Rick with Robin Leech under it. I was LMAO when I saw that pic, how could they confuse Nararda with Robin Leech of all people.

It's a very good read, Rick will have you laughing with some of his stories about his life and carrer.

I have to get this book. I want to read the sh!t about Prince.

Abdul said:

Ok...did Rick have a proofreader?? Narada Michael Walden and Robin Leach fron Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous??? I look for a reissue soon.

Abdul said:

I can't wait to read it.
