  • They let me Play in the Band with them.

    Fantastic book. It’s like the title says: Playing in the Band”. The interviews and the candid style the author used put the reader in the middle of things as the band grew, but they never grew up. I’m trying to figure out which Jam Session I played in that I liked the most or played my best. Groovy, trippy and pretty damn cool. A keeper to pass to my kids.
