James Young's NICO biogs

I read The End and it is was a fantastic read...highly recommended. I want to get his other Nico book, Songs They Never Play On The Radio, but am wondering if it has anything new to add to The End. Does it cover the same time-frame (I would imagine it does - he was in her band)? The same pathetic tales of sexlessness and addiction?

If it is the same book with little more to add, I would just assume save my $15. Can anyone shed any light on this?

I read Richard Witts' Nico biog which I liked. Another Manchester music scene/media guy, but not a junkie.

"The End" is being adapted into a film. I prefered Young's bio to Witt's, less depressing.
