    <body><![CDATA[This book is so painful to read that I can't stand it.  But I can never give up on a book after I have read more than 50 pages.  The writing is dreadful.  The '70s feminism is so tiresome.  I bought it because I am interested in the music business of the '60s and 70s, but boy does this stink.  Even if you are interested in Joni Mitchell, Carly Simon and Carole King, the bad writing will drive you to your knees.  And the book is huge, 592 pages.  Stay away from this book.  Save your money.]]></body>
