I am reading it and loving every single sentence. Anyone who is looking for "secrets" and "explanations" is bound to be disappointed (and deserves to be). This is beautifully written, with great simplicity and accuracy in his choice of words and phrases, and feels very much like he was just sitting in your kitchen telling you about his life. It is not overblown in any way, nor does it feel self-serving or phony. And anyone who says it's dull should have his head examined. What I would not give to have been in the middle of that early scene at the Folklore Center, and to have crossed paths with all those wonderful musicians in their scuffling years.....folks, this is a heavenly read!!
