"Everything is an Afterthought" The Life and Writing of Paul Nelson" is one of the finest books about music I've ever read. It is the glorious soon to be tragic life of Paul Nelson who knew Dylan, Springsteen, Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon, the NY Dolls...helped them in their careers. Paul was a that rare man, a music writer other music writers TRULY respected.


Kevin Avery, the author, did a magnificent job. If you like...love to read this is a brilliant and heartbreaking book.

Gazza and Erik, among others, will appreciate this book.
