Acerca de esta escucha
Legendary Rock Hall of Fame innovator shares the most lasting influences on his remarkable life—a life that helped shape the last 60 years of rock and roll history
The book features a prologue by Eric Clapton and a foreword by Paul Simon.
Dion DiMucci's journey through rock and roll history is as legendary as his hits. As the lead singer of Dion and the Belmonts in the late 1950s, Dion captured the heart of America with chart-toppers like "Runaround Sue", "The Wanderer", and "A Teenager in Love." His later solo success with the profound "Abraham, Martin, and John" in 1968 marked another high, contributing to his twelve gold records. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Dion explored folk, blues, and gospel, earning a Grammy nomination in 1985 and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 alongside icons like the Rolling Stones and Stevie Wonder.
In this compelling collection, Dion shares intimate conversations with close friend Adam Jablin, reflecting on his rise to fame, battles with heroin addiction, a sixty-year marriage, and the influential figures in his music career, including Hank Williams and Bob Dylan.
This book captures not just the life of a music icon, but six decades of rock and roll evolution.

Dion came up out of the Bronx in the 50s and tore through the music charts in a ferocious display of talent. He continued to make great music while slowly returning to his Catholic roots. His hard-won wisdom filters through his stories whether he's recalling how he went shopping with John Lennon and ended up on the cover of Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band or what it was like to travel in the Jim Crow South with Sam Cooke.

With her “thoughtful, smart, and funny” (Kirkus Reviews) writing, Heather recounts the humorous trysts, mishaps, and serendipitous success she’s found as a life-long reveler in all things indulgent. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a charming and intimate meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and—most importantly—second chances.

Bestselling author and legendary Doors drummer John Densmore offers a powerful exploration of the "greed gene"-that part of the human psyche that propels us toward the accumulation of more and more wealth, even at the expense of our principles, friendships, and the well-being of society. This is the gripping account of the legal battle to control The Doors's artistic destiny. In it, Densmore looks at his conflict with his bandmates over the right to use The Doors's name, revealing the ways in which this struggle mirrors and reflects a much larger societal issue.

Without Nebraska, Bruce Springsteen might not be who he is today. The natural follow-up to Springsteen’s hugely successful album The River should have been the hit-packed Born in the U.S.A. But instead, in 1982, he came out with an album consisting of a series of dark songs he had recorded by himself, for himself. But more than forty years later, Nebraska is arguably Springsteen’s most important record—the lasting clue to understanding not just his career as an artist and the vision behind it, but also the man himself.

Amazing stories told right
Dion shares many life lessons he learned throughout his amazing life in a laid back, comfortable way. Almost like he’s talking to you. He also reflects on his faith, his Christian worldview, and other topics that really cause the listener to look at their own inner self.

Do yourself a favor and download
Dion's songs have helped me throughout my life since I first discovered his voice and music growing up in the 80's in the Bronx. They have and always will take me on a trip. Now in my 50's, this book is doing the same. I never downloaded a book in my life and I finished it in 2 days listening in the car and am looking forward to the hard cover. Give it a listen and really listen. Thank you Dion and Adam for this.

Faith, blues and rock and roll
This book was even better than Dion's autobiography, the Wanderer. As a Catholic I feel embolden in my faith to hear the way Dion wears it on his sleeve and explains it with clarity and pride. That meant as much to me as the stories of his blues and rock and roll development. Dion has a great voice, great taste in music and great style. He delivers it all with honesty, class and dignity. He is truly one of my all time heroes. Anyone who cares about music and its deeper meaning should read this book!
