Somehow it missed the attention of both the AP & infoplease, but today would have been Mr. Bangs' 59th B-Day, as TBogg notes. (We already noted today is The Nuge's & "Skunk" Baxter's 59th as well.)A mess of quotes ('though we believe they may work better in context) that seem to be from interviews rather than published stuff.
And something by Richard Hell. Haven't read it, but it's possibly good.
Do your own searching from here on. And we note that there are indications that Lester (birth name: Leslie) was born 14 December 1948. All, however, are sure Mr. Bangs died 30 April 1982. (Just Another Blog's™ most recent ex-girlfriend's birthday, oddly. The 30 April part, not the 1982 part.)
P. S.: Seems as if everyone likes TBogg's pull, some earlier than others.
