My Damage

The Story of a Punk Rock Survivor

De: Keith Morris, Jim Ruland

Narrado por: James Patrick Cronin

Keith Morris is a true punk icon. No one else embodies the sound of Southern Californian hardcore. Short and sporting waist-length dreadlocks, Morris is known the world over for his take-no-prisoners approach on the stage and his integrity off of it. Over the course of his 40-year career, he's battled diabetes, drug and alcohol addiction, and the record industry.

My Damage is more than a book about the highs and lows of a punk rock legend, however. It's also a look at rock 'n' roll through the lens of someone who has shared the stage with just about every major figure in the music industry and appeared in cult films like The Decline of Western Civilization and Repo Man. It's a Hollywood story from a native's perspective. My Damage is Morris's streets, his scene, his music - as only he can tell it.

brilliant

I can't say enough good things about this book. love Keith Morris, his story and music are captivating. read wonderfully. everyone should buy this book.

Entertaining story written by the best punk front man of the early 80s second wave of punk!!!!

At first i was disappointed Keith didn’t record the audiobook himself. Maybe his voice may have been to distinct and distractive to the story. Good book flies by ,I’ve been a fan for years and gives a different perspective of the author and his life. One of the greatest punk musicians of our time his influence is huge. I thought it was refreshing to hear that he doesn’t see it that way. Hopefully they make some interesting new music now that he’s back with the circle jerks.

Being an old punk rock fan it was great!

Being an old school punk rocker I loved it brought back tons of memories. The odd thing for me was knowing Keith voice and his speech patterned hering somone else read it.

amazing. best book I've listened so far.

if you are a fan of punk in any way this a great book to read. I've always looked up to Keith Morris and it was pleasure to get a glimpse into his life.

Great story, very relatable

One of the good guys from early years of hardcore music and a great reminder of why I still love it.

Great insight into one of LA punk's founding fathers

Loved the book. Recommend to anyone with even a slight interest in contemporary music history. Only critique is that I would've preferred to hear Keith's charismatic voice telling the story, as opposed to an actor, who did a fine job, but He's not Keith...

Good Listen!

I'm a long time fan of basically anything Keith Morris so I can't say if it would be as good for non fans, but if you are it's probably for you.

If I had one knock it's that I wished there was more of it.

My damage by Keith morris

What a great book!!! Keith has a great life story and I enjoyed it thoroughly as a fan and as a listener.

keith rocks.

keith has such a humble perspective on music, and a very realatabe, perspective on punk and music on general. Keith comes across as genuine and has a great literary voice.

The narrator has a great voice but should have done more homework. He pronounces Fugazi wrong and sounds like an ass.

Incredible!

Amazingly vivid recollections of a true American icon. Every chapter had me on the edge of my seat saying, "No f-ing way!"

This is a must read for any punk rock fan but I think would also be of interest to anyone who is striving toward a dream. Keep going.

I was reminded of some bands I'd forgotten about and turned on to some I didn't know about (Off! rocks). I was inpsired. I was floored. What a great addition to all the work that Keith Morris has put out there. Thank you!
