I truly loved this book and intend to buy it for all of my old high school gal pals. The contribution these three (and many others mentioned in the book) made to music was and is enormous. We all struck out with stars in our eyes and Joni Michell's 'Banquet' is as germaine today as it was then. It was fascinating for a boomer like me to find out that Graham Nash was "Willy". The book forces you ...             Sheila Levine is Dead and Living in New York28 reviews Gail Parent Overlook TP, 2004 Funny and sad...but mostly very funny! A couple of reviewers have given this book a bad review. They both sound like idiots. One of them doesn't even seem to have read the book; this person said that Sheila was a PROSTITUTE!
