Remember Wayne County and the Electric Chairs? Long before drag queens dominated the media, before gender-bending, before punk, even before Stonewall, there was Jayne County. From the 60s to the 90s she was the craziest, the most extreme queen ever to hit a rock 'n' roll stage. She's known and worked with Warhol, Bowie, and Derek Jarman, been an actress, a singer and a prostitute. She's the world's original rock 'n' roll trans star, crossing the genders in the full glare of publicity. Man Enough to Be a Woman is the wild, hilarious, and shameless account of Jayne's life from her cissy-boy childhood in Georgia to her 90s renaissance, as a new wave of superstars claim her as their inspiration.

This is a very interesting book on many fronts. The bravery and punkness (if that’s a word) of Jayne Country shine through. The stories from the state of Georgia and family shine through for me as well as the tales of the dingy New York clubs I’d idolized as a young punk rocker. I think this book could also open the eyes of someone who may be going through gender issues and has the capability to teach the rest of us a thing or two. Thank you Wayne/Jayne County. Love and respect.

The best audiobook ever. Jayne’s narration is stunning. I never thought I’d get to hear Jayne County waxing poetic about the Krystal but now I just want it played on a loop at my funeral.

Jayne!

I sometimes Finish an audio book and wonder why didn't the author narrate this book himself?
some people have great voices for instance Steve Jones of the sex pistols, he did a decent job on decent job of narration of his book lonely boy.
other times people whom I'm very familiar with their voice and they have pleasant accents do not narrate their own autobiography & it riddles me.

In this case the Narration should have absolutely been left it up to someone else someone with a similar Georgia accent but that did not sound like they were reading from a piece of paper they had never held in their hand.

The story is exactly as you expect a mixture of temper tantrums, random sex, and bad drugs throughout the late sixties and into the early eighties.
It is pretty hilarious to me after actually listening to the electric chairs albums that it is a riddle to Jane why she never achieved the mainstream success and a big time record deal with songs like if you don't wanna fuck me fuck off.
yeah I wonder why that never made it to Casey Kasem top 10.

And even though in that very era there were amazing rock bands Ramones, Richard Hell, Johnny thunders, New York Dolls... segue into Blondie Talking Heads etc.
Jane county was not one of those people.
they may have been friends and they may have frequented the same places but Jane county was not on par with those people there was no way she was going to get the same recognition or same record deal, it isn't a mystery.

some insight to the personality.
some perspective.
but alot of the confusion & freak outs youd expect.

mental illness in a wig.
