This is probably the best musician autobiography I've ever read. It is non-pretentious, enlightening and inspiring.Andy has witnessed and participated in far more that just The Police musically and skirted the edge of superstardom for decades. If you're a guitarist, get ready to start practising again.
Not bad. I think you have to be an Andy Summers/Police/Guitar fan to enjoy it. The style is rather colloquial, but it works.
in this intimate, revealing work, Andy Summers writes fluidly about his first guitar, his experiences with earlier bands, his relationships and encounters with Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, John Belushi, and The Police, and more. Less-known is Andy’s early musical career in the U.K., where he achieved moderate fame. But after Andy ended up in California, ultimately finding himself out of work and teaching lessons, he returned to England, where serendipitous circumstances found him on a train show more with Stewart Copeland. The rest was history. This is the moving, gently (and often acidly) funny memoir of a premier guitarist who ultimately found himself at the top of the world. - show less
