Historia
Eric Clapton is far more than a rock star. Like Dylan and McCartney, he is an icon and a living legend. He has sold tens of millions of records, played sell-out concerts all over the world, and been central to the significant musical developments of his era. His guitar playing has seen him hailed as "God". Now, for the first time, Eric tells the story of his personal and professional journeys in this pungent, witty, and painfully honest autobiography.

Historia
As lead singer and songwriter for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis has lived life on the razor's edge. Much has been written about him, but until now we've only had his songs as clues to his experience from the inside. In Scar Tissue, Kiedis proves himself to be as compelling a memoirist as he is a lyricist, giving us a searingly honest account of the life from which his music has evolved.

CONSTANT CONTACT
Revisado: 04-28-15
What did you like best about Mekong Mud Dogs? What did you like least?
Wellllll, I'm not sure. Based on my experience in RVN,I have a feeling that many of the stories in this are an amalgamation of a tour of duty that spanned 12 Mo. But you ask what I liked most book, I must say I got a kick out of the authors naivety as it relates to the behavior of 20-21 yr. olds back in the 60's
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
anticlimactic
What three words best describe Jason P. Hilton’s performance?
a lot of struggling with many pretty standard military terms
What else would you have wanted to know about Ed Eaton’s life?
Yes, what I don't understand is, how is it that during two tours in RVN and more than just a few fire fights I could count on one hand the number of live, in the bush, VC that I actually saw with my own eyes, and the author describes what sounds like he was in daily contact and his description of his A.O. had the area awash in NVA/VC. Could it have happened? well possibly but it would be the exception rather than the rule.
Any additional comments?
If you think we lost that war you go there sometime and see if that looks like a communist or capitalist country.

WOW,WHAT A FAR OUT GROOVY CAT HE IS.
Revisado: 03-24-15
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Less preachy. We all know Mr. Nash is a big time Lib but we want a story not an explanation
of his vapid political leanings.
Would you ever listen to anything by Graham Nash again?
only if he wrote his own obituary.
What does Graham Nash bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Just what a confused person he really is. If he hates this country (from which he has made untold millions) he should get the huck out of fere.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
nausea, and a sense of loathing.
Any additional comments?
why yes thank you. Graham Nash is clueless.

What would have made Let's Spend the Night Together better?

What was most disappointing about Pamela Des Barres’s story?
it is pretty much a rehash of "I'm with the band.

Linda Eastman.....oh no, wait ,she's dead. Lets see.....hummm.....I know, Phyllis Diller. Cmon, look it up.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
resignation. I knew from jump street this book was a retread.
Any additional comments?
