À propos de cet audio

 John Taylor, Duran Duran’s co-founder, takes the reader on a wild ride through his life. From the eighties through today, from Rio to All You Need is Now, John writes about the music, the parties, and the MTV videos that made millions swoon.

With Duran Duran, John Taylor has created some of the greatest music of our time. From the disco dazzle of debut single ‘Planet Earth’ right up to their latest number one album, All You Need is Now, Duran Duran has always had the power to sweep the world onto its feet.

It’s been a ride – and for John in particular, the ride has been wild, thrilling... and dangerous. Now, for the first time, he tells his incredible story. A tale of dreams fulfilled, lessons learned and demons conquered.

A shy only child, Nigel John Taylor wasn’t an obvious candidate for pop stardom and frenzied girl panic. But when he ditched his first name and picked up a bass guitar, everything changed. John Formed Duran Duran with his friend Nick Rhodes in the summer of 1978, and they were soon joined by Roger Taylor, then Andy Taylor and finally Simon Le Bon. Together they were an immediate, massive global success story, their pictures on millions of walls, every single a worldwide hit.

In his frank, compelling autobiography, John recounts the highs –hanging out with icons like Bowie, Warhol and even James Bond; dating Vogue models and driving fast cars – all the while playing hard with the band he loved. But there were tough battles ahead – troubles that brought him to the brink of self-destruction – before turning his life around.

Told with humor, honesty and hard-won wisdom, and packed with exclusive pictures, In the Pleasure Groove is a fascinating, irresistible portrait of a man who danced into the fire... and came through the other side. Divertissement et célébrités Musique Célébrité Inspirant Spirituel

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Unlike most cred-obsessed rockers, the Duran Duran bassist presents his (and the band's) story as one of substance in the service of style. And his natural raconteur's wit lends Duran's ruthless ambition some crucial charm.”—LA Times

 “Taylor's honest and heartfelt style makes for a highly worthwhile and entertaining read whether you are a fan of the band or not. In the Pleasure Groove is, quite simply, a fascinating tale of very interesting man who has jammed one hell of a lot of living into his 52 years.”—Huffington Post

 “Taylor’s insightful, entertaining memoir, the inside story of the seminal ‘80s band, Duran Duran.”—Publishers Weekly

 “The book is a familiar tale of rock ’n’ roll, sin and redemption, but Taylor’s capable voice make this a more nuanced and intriguing memoir than might be expected.”—Kirkus

I was a huge Duranie in the 80s so to get to hear John Taylor tell his story was amazing. He comes across as very honest and does not sugar coat his struggles with fame and all it's ups and downs. I would have been happy with an even longer book, it was that interestimg! You come away feeling that John is someone who would be happy talking with anyone and not a pretentious Rockstar. Loved this book!

Great story

I have this book in hard back at home, I loved it so much the first time I read it that I knew it would be the first book I purchased in audio format. I just finished listening to it and I loved it even more than when I read it. I love the fact that John Taylor is the one reading the book, it makes it more personal. Duran Duran is still my favourite band after all these years. 💕

Love!

I was a casual Duran Duran fan as a teen, and I went into this book with no great expectations of John Taylor as a reader or of the story itself.

John Taylor is an excellent reader, and I really loved hearing the story told in his voice (literal and figurative).

Hearing about John's childhood and the beginnings of Duran Duran was interesting and to get the inside perspective of the phenomenon that was and is Duran Duran was fascinating.
