Now don't confuse the Cherry Sisters and the Sherry Sisters.  The former never recorded (apart from a 1901 acetate which has gone missing), and all we have to remember them by are their (uniformly negative) reviews.

Oops! My goof-up! I still don't have that book but I misread the band name on the video.
My appologies to The Sherry Sisters.  Embarrassed

You can probably order the book from Amazon or through your local bookstore.  (I ordered my copy at Borders.)  As for the CD, I lucked out and found it used for $5 in a record store.  In mint condition even.

I'll check the local outlets or I'll special order it. Thanks. Smile
 
Now, about Joe Meek:
 
This Wiki looks interesting. Too bad for his sad and tragic end though.
The tributes and references include Dave Stewart of Egg, Hatfield And The North, etc...

I think it's accurate to say that a GG Allin show is not meant to entertain the audience but
to obliterate the audience.
I consider myself a distanced observer rather than a fan and I'm sure GG's fine with that.
Warning: Profanity and hatered.

Actually, Easy Action is a kick ass album. Way before its time...in a backwards manner.

Back in the 1980's this guy would visit all the record stores in Boston & Cambridge (where mine was), and drop off copies of his records to sell (he didn't expect any money).  No one ever bought any.
Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

How about a prog-rock musician who also is an "out there" performer? The performances of Mani Neumeier, drummer of Guru Guru, are legendary; here are some excerpts from one of them:
