I agree. Bockris really isn't the man for the job. The words shoddy and hack spring to mind when I think of Uptight and its author(s).

Whatever happned the history Sterlin Morrison said he was writing. I guess he never was able to finish it.

off the top of my head, most of Nico's biographical information. They said she was a teenager when she was in La Dolce Vita, but she was well into her twenties are already established as a model, and also some weird reference to her parents not wanting her to work with Fellini, even though her father died in WWII and the whole blablabla professional adult again.. lots of little things like that. Mixed up names and dates. Next time I look at Uptight I'll mention other things I found wrong, just can't remember right now.
