He was present for and wrote about the infamous 1969 Rolling Stones concert in Altamont, California, at which a concertgoer was killed by a member of the Hells' Angels. In addition to writing books, Booth has also published music articles in ''Rolling Stone'', ''Esquire'', ''GQ'', and ''Playboy'' and appeared in many documentaries, not only on Southern music and the Rolling Stones, but Tom Thurman's ''Movies of Color'' and ''Peckinpah''. For some years Booth lived near Brunswick, Georgia, with his wife, the poet Diann Blakely. Currently he resides in Memphis, and is finishing the successor to ''Rhythm Oil'', currently entitled ''Blues Dues'', a memoir, ''Tree Full of Owls'', and ''Distant Thoughts'', a series of letters chronicling the unfolding literary relationship and love story between Booth and poet Blakely.
