If peanut butter could talk.....

Revisado: 12-27-24

it would sound like the narration in this book!... It sounded like he had a stuffy nose, also he pronounced words like the stapler guy in office space. Like his voice was being filtered through a jar of mud. Very distracting. I would have returned it but I bought it on sale so I had to endure it. I think I'll start listening to the samples of books before I purchase them to avoid this in the future.

Really good, just one thing

Revisado: 08-23-24

I've enjoyed both of Cea's books. It might just be me, but there were a few words she used so often in this one that it really started to get on my nerves. "Tee pee camp" ...."Suzie Doll"....and "papa dick"......It got to the point that I told myself, if she says those words one more time i'm going to quit....but I wanted to hear the rest of the story so I hung in there. Other than that, great story told well.

Horrible narration

Revisado: 03-02-24

Maybe it's the recording engineers fault, but this narrator trails off to nearly a whisper at the end of about 60 percent of the sentences!!...so frustrating having to lean in and concentrate trying to hear what the last words of the sentences are. Going forward I'll pass on anything narrated by Scott Brick.

Debbie Harry is adorable

Revisado: 02-29-24

What a genuine, funny, honest, UN-pretentious, talented person Debbie Harry is. Entertaining from start to finish. So endearing listening to her tell her story, I didn't want it to end. I met her once a long time ago at a BBQ at Gary K's house. She was a sweet heart back then and she still is.

kinda mediocre

Revisado: 01-26-24

The story was told in three parts, 1st: the crimes as they happened, 2nd: the crimes as they were revealed to the police, 3rd: the crimes as they were presented during the court case.

The narration was ok but...Homocide pronounced" Home oh side"??!....really?

I guess I'm Jeff's enemy

Revisado: 11-11-23

I've loved Jeff's music for years, Since uncle tupelo until now. I've also Loved all of his books. I've always listened to the audible versions. The way he talks and tells stories, the mannerisms with the way he talks and phrases things. I used to think "here's a guy I bet I'd be friends with if circumstances provided a way".....until I read this book.

I liked the way Johnny Carson dealt with political issues. He didn't talk much about it. Sure he joked about politicians on both sides, but he held his cards close to his chest when it came to his views. He said he handled it that way so he wouldn't alienate half the country who might have opposing views. And he certainly wouldn't go on a rant spewing much of the judgement and hatred that he accuses "the other side" of. It kind of ruined it for me, knowing that the music and books i'm enjoying, are being performed by a person who hates, or is disgusted with people like me. Artist?...Musician?...songwriter?....LOVE IT!!!...political activist?....I'll pass.

I Love Radiohead, but geesh

Revisado: 09-17-21

I thought the author went a little too far out in the deep end about this record. Injecting way too much politics and BS into a rock bands recording and relevance to social issues. I bought this because I love talking about music, and Radiohead is a great band, But all the political Rants made this a very irritating listen.

Great stories, excellent narration

Revisado: 05-01-21

It took forever to read as I found myself rewinding parts of the book to hear it again, or stopping to look up and listen to a song. You really get a sense of what humble, down to earth, generally good guys the members of the band were, VERY unlike Roberton's delusional account in his book "testimony", where robbie portrays himself as the one with the solution to every problem, the hero in every situation, The one who always manages to save the day.....so boring. If your going to read one book about the Band, it should be this one.
