Unabridged Audiobook
A lil' too young to engage in the scene in the 70s, but percipient and fully aware of music in general, especially rock and punk. It was an utter, pleasant surprise to find out Jonesy himself narrated the audio version of his autobiography. That husky voice with the fat Cockney accent... Such delight & fun to listen to! Steve's always been my fav Pistol, but after reading and listening to his book... I can't help but love him even more. Highly recommended!
This was an excellent biography of one of my favourite guitarists of all time, from one of the "classic rock" bands of my youth!!!! I never knew how similar my own life was to Steve's, without myself gaining "stardom" as Steve did. The book, read by Steve himself, was a very personal look inside the life of someone known for their "Filth and Fury" more than the talent, and personal struggles, they had as a child, and on throughout their adulthood. Finding out that I have tons in common with Steve made me feel a whole lot better about myself, something I honestly did not expect from this biography. A great listen for any fan of the Pistols, or just "rock n roll" in general!!!
This is one of the best "rock n roll" biographies I've ever listened to. Steve is the narrator and hearing him describe his life is fantastic, and most importantly he's freakin hilarious! I laughed quite a lot. I highly recommend this book for anyone regardless if you're a Sex Pistols fan...this book rock!
