Loved every page of it. Highly recommend. Wish it had a happier ending.
Too much turmoil not enough music
By Section 60
Author did a great job going over each and every band nightmare. Author did a less of a good job explaining the importance of the band’s music technique
Couldn’t put it down!

As a long time fan of the band, it was deeply satisfying to read these stories after hearing the myths and urban legends for so long. Its a bonus that the book is beautifully written too. A great piece of rock history.
A good read…

Well written and entertaining. Emotionally a little draining reading as I’m sure the story tellers hope to convey. Sorry I just missed seeing them a couple of weeks ago.
Excellent book!
By SqueezyG
Everything you heard is true, according to Steve Gordon of course. This book is very well written by the guy who experienced all the drama in a great rock ‘n’ roll band. The book has a very funny, positive vibe to it, despite all the negativity that Steve experienced drumming for the Black Crowes. There are some really excellent stories about Jimmy page, Robert Plant and many other famous musicians. Steve has a great memory and he recounts the events that transpired from him first meeting the Robinson brothers to his last day with the band in great detail. A truly fun read!
A Long Awaited Story & Persepctive
By ChristopherK78
I really enjoyed this book. Steve’s point of view seemed grounded and his perspective and sense of humor made the cringeworthy parts not a struggle to get through. I wish he would’ve mentioned the CourtTv part but I’ll live. Thanks for your side of the story!
Fascinating

I put this down once and it was only because I had to go to work! A must have for any Crowes fan!
Good background and closure for hardcore fans
By Silentdriver78
First off, SHAMC is like a family member to me. Part of my identity and musical DNA. I don’t know if this is in the class of rock biographies in which a casual fan could enjoy. Lifelong fans on the other hand will get a real catharsis out of it which is what I think Steve intended. Thanks, Gorm!
Great read
By PeaceofMind66
One of the best rock books I’ve read. Steve’s tone is both insightful and funny. I couldn’t put this down. Top notch!
