CHELSEA HOTEL MANHATTAN
Extreme living in New York’s Chelsea Hotel.
Joe Ambrose.
List price £10.99 UK $19.95 US | RELEASE DATE 21st April 2008| 192pp | Extreme Travel/ Music/ Pop Culture
Extreme living in New York’s Chelsea Hotel, from the Beats through Punk, and on into the present day.
Joe Ambrose stayed at the Chelsea Hotel, home to many famous authors, artists and outlaws down the years. Andy Warhol shot Chelsea Girls there and welsh poet Dylan Thomas died there, having reputedly inspired the young Zimmerman to change his name to Bob Dylan.
Chelsea Hotel Manhattan is the first factual book on the building and features conversations with William Burroughs, Paul Bowles, Gerard Malanga, Herbert Huncke, Victor Bockris and others.
Every room at the Chelsea tells its own story—not unlike The Overlook in Stephen King’s The Shining. Nancy Spungen met her death in one room, an episode recounted in detail by Rockets Redglare.
Books have been written in the Chelsea Hotel (Stanley Bard, the hotel manager keeps a collection of them), but none have been written about it until now..
Joe Ambrose works as a DJ and member of experimental hip hop group Islamic Diggers, who produced the CD 10%, featuring Bill Laswell, Marianne Faithfull, John Cale, and William Burroughs.
Ambrose co-organised The Here to Go Show, a celebration of the wild cultural experimentation of William Burroughs and Brion Gysin. Collaborators on this included Iggy Pop, Marianne Faithfull, and William Burroughs. The Here To Go Show was documented in the movie Destroy All Rational Thought.
His books include two novels for Pulp Books, Serious Time (1998) and Too Much Too Soon (2000), Moshpit Culture (2001), an investigation of covert punk culture from inside the moshpit, and Gimme Danger (2002), a biography of punk icon Iggy Pop.
Ambrose has performed with Lydia Lunch, John Cale, Scanner, Anita Pallenberg, Ian Sinclair, Howard Marks, Tav Falco, Richard Hell, and Morocco's Master Musicians of Joujouka.

I have an anthology of woman gone wrong works (poetry, short fiction, irreverent criticism, essays and art) called Blistering B-Girl Confessions coming together. The project will recognize female art soldiers on the edge, but includes an academic framework to hold it all together, get us taken seriously. Think Lydia Lunch, Lynda Berry, Dot Parker and hipsters who dance all over the edge of good taste. Strippers, strawberry girls, dope fiends, runaways, felons, taggers,sex trade swingers, foul mouthed outsiders,shoplifters; any chick who has something to say and wants to share experiences beyond New Bride magazines and soccer practice should submit work to us. This book's lurid tone will attract an audience, but the quality of work and recognition of its social and psychological importance will make it viable, even in college coursework, as a neo-femininist celebration of women who are wanton, willful and well-informed. Remember how Stand Up Poetry put the new breed of poets on the map a decade ago? We can do that with these naked efforts by women like you, who tell the truth with no apologies. "Inappropriate" is a word that could come up, but that's exactly why we want to unite for this project and launch careers men like Bukowski, Burroughs,Welsh and Stahl enjoy. Please send female art soldiers and (wanna be females who write or create art) to me, and, if you are interested, you can take a look at what we have so far. We have editors/writers working on gathering and choosing works now and plan to have a manuscript by Fall. Still, we need samples to show for editors interested in the project so send a piece (previously published work is okay and excerpts from your novel are a great way to market it) , bio, photo, etc. to RADaxis7@aol.com as attachments.
