Rebecca read and liked Andy's review of The One and Only: Peter Perrett, Homme Fatale:

"Another Nina Antonia "puppy boy gone junkie" bio, this time about wimp-rocker Peter Perrett whose crash and burn band The Only Ones failed to capture record company or consumer interest.

His band was so poorly managed that CBS Records used them as a textbook example on "how not to run a band" at board meetings.

All of this may seem sympathy-generating if not for the fact that Perrett was a detestable snob who got kicked off a Who tour (by Roger Daltrey, of all people) for refusing to speak to his headliners. Other highlights of this awful little man is his insistence on having his wife wash his hair, which she complied to like a mindless slave. I also liked the part where he made her deal drugs while she was pregnant. There has never been a loser as despicable as Peter Perrett. And not only that, but he's not even good-looking - he looks like Abraham Lincoln's horse.
