Van Gogh was a silly manic-depressive twit who couldn't wipe his bum without Theo's permission. What a ponce John Lennon was, what a burn-out Syd Barrett was, what a depressing Git Nick Drake was, what a bloated addict Elvis was, Dylan's always been an ass in interviews, and Billie Holiday and Judy Garland were just Junkies....can we talk about Marianne Faithfull.....on and on and on.....
