My Life And The Beautiful Music by Jon Hotten
Los Angeles, 1988. In a summer of hedonism, everyone wants their share. On Sunset Strip, undiscovered bands dream of emulating their heroes: Motley Crue, Van Halen, Poison and all the other chancers who got lucky... Above them in the canyons, the city's privileged youth already live like rock stars.
Here's a book you just want to be true.. A heady slice of disturbing joy. * Sunday Sport *
An off-kilter, part-autobiographical account of the hedonistic Hollywood rock scene... An odd book, then, but weirdly compelling all the same. -- Geoff Barton * Classic Rock *
Brilliantly orchestrated... Hotten is a natural-born journalist and excels in telling such stories in controlled, compelling prose – as anyone who has read his superb non-fiction book The Years of the Locust can attest. * Dabbler *
