Rockers Writing It Out

Reading a book is still one of the most relaxing and soothing hobby anyone can have, and we wanted to suggest a few of the autobiographies or best sellers worth spending time with.

Frank Zappa was more than an unusual musician. He was an artist with strong political and social opinions. If you don’t; mind getting an entirely different perspective of the 60s and 70s, “The Real Frank Zappa” is the book for you. His life is also portrayed in a film documentary that hit the theaters a few weeks ago.

“Here, There, and Everywhere: My Life Recording the Music of the Beatles” is an insightful look at the Fab Four from a recording technician who began working at famed Abbey Roads studios at the age of 15, and recorded all the Beatles hits.

Imagine losing a brother and best friend to motorcycle accidents in the early 70s while touring the country as a rock star? Greg Allman’s “My Cross to Bear” is the inside looks at the road less traveled – hey any dish on his former wife Cher makes this book a bargain.
