The quiet Beatle speaks ... in depth, in his own words
The Quiet Beatle?? I don't think so, or, as the old saying goes, still waters run deep. There was a lot going on beneath that calm exterior, including an often wicked sense of humor, deep thoughts on family, faith and societal concerns, and sometimes a kind of righteous anger. His spiritual journey both underpins a...

Chris Hillman: A well-lived life
How refreshing to read a rock musician's autobiography that is exactly that -- his life story, his words, not 'as told to' or ghost-written. Even more refreshing is the fact that Chris Hillman story teller is just like Chris Hillman singer / songwriter/ player -- low-key and straight ahead, no flash or fake fireworks....

Levon gets his just due as an artist, an icon, and a man
Well researched, well-written account of the rise, fall, and ultimate resurrection of the career of the late, great Levon Helm. Of the books I've read that zero in on the history of The Band (Barney Hoskyns' Across The Great Divide, Levon's This Wheel's On Fire, Robbie's Testimony), this one outclasses them all. Even...

Rusty Gear tells all, well almost
Very, very good. "Rusty Gear" is a fine, engaging storyteller. Written in an easygoing, conversational tone and style with Ashley Wren Collins, Russ Giguere recounts his -- and The Association's -- history in detail, without coming across like a kiss-and-tell-all type. He extolls his band's musical artistry (one of...

Hits and nothing but the hits
It gives an excellent alternate view of the singles charts of my youth, and then some. I used to subscribe to Record World because it was a truer barometer of record sales -- Billboard (which I also supported) based its charts on some kind of sales / radio airplay combo. Comparing the three major chart services of th...

The Rascals were Groovin' ... until they weren't
While it suffers a bit from the usual self-publishing snafus (punctuation mistakes, fact check errors, etc.), Gene Cornish (with Stephen Miller) delivers a generally spellbinding account of The Rascals' rise and fall, failed reunions, and second rise and fall. Heartbreaking, really. How many squabbling, decades broke...

Note perfect pastiche of the '70s rock 'n' roll life
I love this book. It captures perfectly the rock scene of the late '60s / early to mid '70s -- right in my wheelhouse. Midway through, I'd almost forgotten it was a work of fiction -- it's that real. Reminds me of so many people I knew and loved back in the day; change some of the character names to JoAnne, Terri, S...

Good time memories of the Lovin' Spoonful
Lots of fun. Lots of info. Lots of nostalgia. If you're a life-long Lovin' Spoonful fan like me, you're likely to flat-out love it. Great companion to the earlier Do You Believe In Magic release.

A very good, if one-sided read. Would love to hear Jim (Roger) McGuinn's version of events. Ms. McGuinn has triumphed over a lot of adversities, and comes across as a good and honest woman who was betrayed by her own naïve ways as well as by the rock 'n' roll lifestyle her then-husband embraced. She found her streng...

Browne's CSNY: A Tale of Lost Boys with Fatal Flaws
The better written of the two battling bios, although as other reviewers have noted, marred by some sloppy editing.

To my ears, the first alb...

Don Nix revisits his very interesting musical life
A fascinating journey through a gifted musician's adventurous life. I don't disagree with folks who've opined that it could have used an editor's touch, if only to tighten it up and avoid some redundant stories. However, it's written in Nix's own hand (and therefore in his unique Southern voice) and that's one of its...

Gallows ...

Purchased as a birthday gift for my brother, who is a long-time Joni fan. He seemed very happy with the anthology, feeling it would dovetail nicely with the recent Joni bio he was also gifted with by a dear decades-long friend of his. Guess I lucked out, as I almost went for the bio!

Nice Curry Cookbook
I was hoping for a strong curry cookbook and I for the most part that is what I got. There is good diversity in recipes and we use them as a foundation with a lot of departures. In our case we are a mostly vegetarian household so we ended up swapping out tofu, mock duck and beyond chicken and occasionally a missing o...

Good, High Level, Overview of Iphone Photography
This book ended up being rewarding for us. I was expecting a reference of buttons and options with a few nice tips and it was pretty much that, but also with a lot of photography, lighting and compositional hints added in. I did learn a couple of things about turning off live mode and using the side buttons for relea...

Great Look at the Birds Around Us
First, I'm a bird watcher, so I am a sucker for any book about birds. This book is not particularly unique in that there are lots of books out there that talk about the birdlife of a particular area throughout the year. What makes this one part of a special group is that it is so well written and that it is based in s...

I'm a little confused about what this book is, but it is being used
This book seems to have just enough introduction to make this book useless for making your own graphic novel, because it would start after 15 pages of brief instruction. And it is not deep enough in instruction to make it a deep how to book. It actually seems to have become something of a sketch book for my youngest ...

Wonderful how this plot unravels
This is definitely a dark storyline that pulls you in. It also has mixed morals where you are kind of rooting for the villan and feeling mixed about the victims. The characters are interesting and the relationships are intertwined in interesting ways. The art work is cartoonish but carry the story well and the pages t...

Great Book for Spurring Ideas
It is hard to get your sustainability footprint to zero, but it is incredibly easy to make a few changes to reduce it. This book has an amazing array of ideas to start making a difference in your life for the planet today. They weren't all winners for me, some didn't pertain to my life (like not infants in the house),...

Beautiful Book That Makes Life Feel Too Short
Flipping through this book makes me realize how many wonderful places there are out there in the world and how little I have seen of it. But at least for North America, it makes me feel very fortunate to have seen a lot of amazing locations. Many of the locations are pretty unlikely, like Shackleton's crossing of Sou...

A Fascinating Read
I am really glad that I got a reviewer copy of this (even though it was a black and white ARC.) I am a huge fan of our biodiversity and I guess I never understood how extensive and diverse our marine sanctuaries are. I knew I had been in some sanctuaries in the Keys and Monterey Bay, but I never realized how much of t...

Not Quite my Spirograph Memories
I enjoyed sharing one of my childhood memories with the kids. This is basically a spyrograph from the 70's but it is not quite the same quality that I remember. Also, this set did not seem complete as we needed to find some map pins and make a carbboard backer to draw on. The end effect was the same, although kids t...

This might have been much too low level for our family.
