Which I assume will a better read than
"MOE TUCKER: Pioneering Drummer of the Velvet Underground Paperback" by Weslin Ford, an AI "author" who has put out 39 books in the last month or so

Could be good (not the AI one) - Unterberger's level of research is second to none. Anyone know if this is a totally new book or a revision of his Day By Day one?

I believe it will be a bio / narrative story but will of course leverage the data he surfaced in his day-by-day book + his digital version update.

Bio based on previous book plus new research. Glad he’s found a new publisher at last. The original agreed publisher had dropped out. Over 800 pages. Now that’s a book.
Need to look on Amazon uk
Here £30.

Ritchie is the best person to do this but I wonder, what more is there to tell that hasn't already been told?

Well, there's only one way to know... $45 list price for 800+ pages is a bargain imo.

Yes, absolutely. I believe in supporting the creators.
In this case, I think it will also be a great read, even if the story has already been told.
