Scar Tissue by Anthony KiedisRead about another memoir on the list.
Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Anthony Kiedis has lived a thousand lives – from child star and the son of a Hollywood drug dealer to the charismatic frontman of one of the world’s biggest bands – and in Scar Tissue, he recounts them all. In his unvarnished 2004 memoir, Kiedis reflects on everything that led him to stratospheric stardom, and the struggles that soon came after, specifically addiction and the tragic loss of his friend and bandmate, Hillel Slovak. It’s a rousing tale of hedonism, debauchery, and salvation.
Scar Tissue is among Rolling Stone's 25 greatest rock memoirs of all time.
