Disco Bloodbath, Late 1990s
As Alig got more into drugs, he infamously murdered his drug dealer roommate, Andre "Angel" Melendez. St. James' debut book, Disco Bloodbath, documents the infamous rise to fame of Alig and the murder. To avoid having to testify against Alig or club owner Peter Gatien, St. James moved to Los Angeles, where he currently lives. A documentary and feature film both used the book as their basis.

Famous quotes containing the word late:
“I realized how for all of us who came of age in the late sixties and early seventies the war was a defining experience. You went or you didn’t, but the fact of it and the decisions it forced us to make marked us for the rest of our lives, just as the depression and World War II had marked my parents.”
—Linda Grant (b. 1949)
