People ask me how come I'm still alive, and I don't know what to say. When I was growing up, if you'd have put me up against a wall with the other kids from my street and asked me which one of us was gonna make it to the age of 60, with five kids and four grandkids and houses in Buckinghamshire and California, I wouldn't have put money on me, no f--king way. But here I am: ready to tell my story, in my own words, for the first time. A lot of it ain't gonna be pretty. I've done some bad things in my time. But I ain't the devil.

Few bands have inspired as much devotion as the Chicago rock band Wilco, and it's thanks, in large part, to the band's singer, songwriter, and guiding light: Jeff Tweedy. But while his songs and music have been endlessly discussed and analyzed, Jeff has rarely talked so directly about himself, his life, and his artistic process.

No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

As an adult, rock music inspired his career, fueled relationships, and, at times, became a life raft.

Guided by Voices was one of the most popular indie-rock bands of the 1990s. Critics internationally have lauded the band's brain trust, Robert Pollard, as a once-in-a-generation artist. Pollard has been compared by The New York Times to Mozart, Rossini, and Paul McCartney (in the same sentence) and everyone from P. J. Harvey, Radiohead, R.E.M., the Strokes, and U2 has sung his praises and cited his music as an influence. But it all started rather prosaically.

In this incisive memoir, Steve Lukather tells the complete Toto story. He also lifts the lid on what went on behind the closed studio doors, shedding light on the unique creative processes of some of the most legendary names in music: from Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, and Elton John to Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen, and Aretha Franklin. Lukather’s extraordinary tale also encompasses the dark side of stardom and the American Dream. Frank, engaging, and often hilarious, The Gospel According to Luke is no ordinary rock memoir.

James Hetfield, with whom many years ago Mustaine founded a band known as Metallica, once observed, with some incredulity, that Mustaine must have been born with a horseshoe up his ass. That's how lucky he's been, how fortunate he is to be pulling breath after so many close calls. And Hetfield is right. Mustaine has been lucky. He has been blessed. But here's the thing about having a horseshoe lodged in your rectum: It also hurts like hell. And you never forget it's there.

The Best of the Recent Rock Biographies
- By Steven Schuster on 10-28-13
By: Graham Nash
Publisher's summary
Chris Akin, rock critic and cohost of the often controversial Classic Metal Show, takes listeners on an exploration of Motley Crue's 1994 self-titled album. Armed with new vocalist John Corabi, it was a sound that, from start to finish, sounded nothing at all like anything they had done previously.
Immediately, it was polarizing. Most of the fan base absolutely hated it. They didn't buy it and further didn't support the band to the point where the label themselves made the decision to stop pushing money into it. That said, though, many fans felt completely different, Akin among them. He takes a look back at both his personal experiences as well as the perception of this polarizing release on the world. This audiobook also includes nearly an hour of bonus audio extras.

Story
Elliott Smith was one of the most gifted songwriters of the 90s, adored by fans for his subtly melancholic words and melodies. The sadness had its sources in life. There was trauma from an early age, years of drug abuse, and a chronic sense of disconnection that sometimes seemed self-engineered. Smith died violently in LA in 2003, under what some believe to be questionable circumstances, of stab wounds to the chest. By this time fame had found him, and record-buyers who shared the listening experience felt he spoke directly to them from beyond: astute, damaged, lovelorn, fighting, until he could fight no more.

In 1992, Victor Bockris' celebrated biography was the first to recognize Richards' pivotal role in the legend of the Rolling Stones. Now that book on rock's most incredible survivor has been expanded. Here are the true facts behind Richards' battles with his demons: the women, the drugs and the love-hate relationship with Jagger. His struggle with heroin and his status as the rock star most likely to die in the 1970s. His scarcely believable rebirth as a family man in the 1980s. Illuminated with revealing quotes and thoughtful insights into the man behind the band that goes on forever.

Story
Dreaming the Beatles is not another biography of the Beatles or a song-by-song analysis of the best of John and Paul. It isn't another exposé about how they broke up. It isn't a history of their gigs or their gear. It is a collection of essays telling the story of what this ubiquitous band means to a generation who grew up with the Beatles' music on their parents' stereos and their faces on T-shirts. What do the Beatles mean today? Why are they more famous and beloved now than ever? Find out.

Off his Rocker
This guy is on crack or something. Girls Girls Girls Mötley Crüe’s worst album come on man. Making fun of Nikki Sixx for writing The heroine diaries. That book has saved lives.

Basically a Podcast
Here is what you are buying - the dude from that classic metal show reminisces about when he bought the S/T Motley Crue album, what he was going through at the time and what was happening at the time in the music world. Nothing new here. He then does a track by track opinion piece that includes Quaternary. Then, because that whole thing takes about an hour or so, he adds a podcast and a John Corabi interview to the end.
Is this a book? No. Is this a worthwhile way to spend time? If you are fan of the record and want something light to listen to, yes. Absolutely. Just be prepared for what it is. And, it is only $3 so WTF.
I am fan of this record. Big time. So, I enjoyed this podcast very much. Just glad to have company as I know that most people are completely unaware that this exists in the Motley Crue catalog.

this album changed my life
Good book, rambled here and there but seemed very factual as far as the band goes. I could have done without the graphic description of cremating animals. If you enjoyed the album, this book is for you.
This album changed my life. It changed the way I played my drums. It is one of the most prized disks in my collection.
