Eric Clapton
À propos de cet audio
Eric was born illegitimate in 1945 and raised by his grandparents. He never knew his father, and until the age of nine believed his absentee mother to be his sister. In his teens his solace was the guitar, and he soon became a cult hero in the club circuits of Britain. With the foundation of the world's first super-group, Cream, in 1966, he became a world superstar.
But the rock-star lifestyle has had a darker side. In more than 40 years at the forefront of his profession, he has twice survived near fatal addictions to drugs and alcohol, the death of his four-year-old son, the deaths of friends such as Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon, the break-up of marriage, and the disintegration of relationships with a succession of beautiful women.
These are the memoirs of a survivor, someone who has reached the pinnacle of success, who has had it all, but whose demons have never left him. At the age of 62, Eric is now ready to tell his story as it is, hiding nothing, with a directness and searing honesty that will make this book one of the most compelling memoirs of our time.

Gold Dust Woman gives "the gold standard of rock biographers" (the Boston Globe) his ideal topic: Nicks' work and life are equally sexy and interesting, and Davis delves deeply into each, unearthing fresh details from new, intimate interviews and interpreting them to present a rich new portrait of the star. Just as Nicks (and Lindsay Buckingham) gave Fleetwood Mac the "shot of adrenaline" they needed to become real rock stars - according to Christine McVie - Gold Dust Woman is vibrant with stories and with a life lived large and hard.

Behind the curtain of her happy on-screen persona, Valerie Bertinelli’s life has been no easy ride, especially when it comes to her own self-image and self-worth. She waged a war against herself for years, learning to equate her value to her appearance as a child star on One Day at a Time and punishing herself in order to fit into the unachievable Hollywood mold. She struggled to make her marriage to Eddie Van Halen—the true love of her life—work, despite all the rifts the rock-star lifestyle created between them.

Histoire
An early architect of punk rock's sound, style, and fury, whose lip-curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into pop's mainstream as one of MTV's first megastars, Billy Idol remains, to this day, a true rock 'n' roll icon. Now, in his long-awaited autobiography, Dancing with Myself, Idol delivers an electric, searingly honest account of his journey to fame - from his early days as front man of the pioneering UK punk band Generation X to the decadent life atop the dance-rock kingdom he ruled.

Ce que les critiques en disent
"Clapton is honest - sometimes, as in the account of his son's death, even searing - and often witty, with a hard-won survivor's humor." ( The New York Times)

If you love Clapton it's a must
I love Clapton so I had to read this book. The narrator was a bit sleepy so it can be easy to zone out and then come back and see you've missed a chapter. But over all it is a great insight of every aspect of his life which I wanted.

A very well written, gripping story that brings the reader so much closer to this rock legend. I wish this book was longer. I thoroughly enjoyed it

Clapton is god
I grew up listening to Eric Clapton and his music has always been a part of my life. I have read this book year ago and loved it but I was quite younger and I think a lot of the deep stuff didn’t hit me till much later. For example his son passing, as being a new parents I can imagine what that would have been like to go though and is something I deed to even think about. It does suck a little that this book is older now so it stop at 2007/8 but every chapter is worthwhile.
The guy who is reading it does a great job as well I only put 4 stars for the sole fact it wasn’t Eric himself reading it haha.

What makes a life?
I would not recommend this book. it was very painful to read. I didn't appreciate his honesty. Because he went into recovery, is the only reason he can tell such heart wrenching sordid details of his life. At one point I sat back and felt sick by the way Eric Clapton treated Pattie, his wife and various girlfriends. As the book marches on, and he is happy and sober buying a yacht, another Ferrari, a glorious watch, another home, I again felt like I didn't get the point.
I am glad he sobered up, but what a streak of misery this man caused.
