Rock Drummer got the ages. Wow.

What an interesting story from a truly great Rock n Roll drummer. From the Turtles to Jefferson Airplane and Starship to Crosby, Stlls, Nash and Young. This guy has seen and experienced the highs and lows of the Rock lifestyle and made it through the other side in one piece. He told great stories throughout that were very interesting as well as informative about all the people he played with, recorded with and had relationships with. I truly enjoyed reading this book and read it quite quickly.

Great Stories, Terrible Editing

Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2020

The tales he tells are true, & entertaining, because they're backed up in other sources but really, why not hire an editor to clean up the copy, flow, misspellings and some factual errors (B-Bender was on the Telecaster, not a Strat)? An art director would have made the cover look professional instead of a low-res one-off. Also, the bragging was a bit overdone.

I found it interesting that Barbata would recount some amazing story, but end it within a short paragraph and then go on to something else instead of expanding on the information. I did enjoy reading about those 60's-70's golden rock years, though, and Barbata was a fantastic drummer.

Boring

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2007

I grew up in the 50's and 60's and love the music. Came across a book signing, so I bought the book and can't seem to finish it. I either get distracted by the editing errors, (I'm a perfectionist) or I keep falling asleep before I can read very far. This guy had a great career, but he's pretty dull in telling about it. Buy the music instead of the book!

Fun and informative read. Captivating.

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2020

Wonderful book. I was mesmerized and captivated by all the great stories and felt like I was living the story. A very interesting and fun read. Great photographs throughout as well. I highly recommend this book.

Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2017

You must be kidding!!! Johny, what's going on here? I'm a Drummer myself, and we Drummers go to bat for each other....but, I can't lie to the potential buyers of your "book"!!
And...are you aware of the Price$ listed on Amazon for your "book"? Insane, man!!
So, people....like the other reviewer said....buy the music, albums, cd's, cassette even!! There you'll find Great Drumming!!!
I'm just sayin'!!
