À propos de cet audio

 An iconic figure of the 1960s and ’70s, Pattie Boyd breaks a forty-year silence in Wonderful Tonight, and tells the story of how she found herself bound to two of the most addictive, promiscuous musical geniuses of the twentieth century and became the most famous muse in the history of rock and roll. She met the Beatles in 1964 when she was cast as a schoolgirl in A Hard Day’s Night. Ten days later a smitten George Harrison proposed. For twenty-year-old Pattie Boyd, it was the beginning of an unimaginably rich and complex life as she was welcomed into the Beatles inner circle—a circle that included Mick Jagger, Ron Wood, Jeff Beck, and a veritable who’s who of rock musicians. She describes the dynamics of the group, the friendships, the tensions, the musicmaking, and the weird and wonderful memories she has of Paul and Linda, Cynthia and John, Ringo and Maureen, and especially the years with her husband, George. It was a sweet, turbulent life, but one that would take an unexpected turn, starting with a simple note that began “dearest l.” I read it quickly and assumed that it was from some weirdo; I did get fan mail from time to time.... I thought no more about it until that evening when the phone rang. It was Eric [Clapton]. “Did you get my letter?”... And then the penny dropped. “Was that from you?” I said....It was the most passionate letter anyone had ever written me.For the first time Pattie Boyd, former wife of both George Harrison and Eric Clapton, a high-profile model whose face epitomized the swinging London scene of the 1960s, a woman who inspired Harrison’s song “Something” and Clapton’s anthem “Layla,” has decided to write a book that is rich and raw, funny and heartbreaking—and totally honest and open and breathtaking. Here is the truth, here is what happened, here is the story you’ve been waiting for.©2007 Pattie Boyd; (P)2007 Random House, Inc. Random House Audio, a division of Random House, Inc.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“A scrumptious memoir . . . There is exactly one big question for Ms. Boyd to answer here: What made her leave Mr. Harrison for Mr. Clapton, her husband’s close friend? To its credit the book answers that question plausibly and fully.”—The New York Times

“The appeal of Wonderful Tonight is as self-evident as the seemingly simple but brash opening chord of ‘A Hard Day’s Night.’ . . . A charming, lively, and seductive book . . . this isn’t a bitter tell-all. There’s an aura of sweetness around Boyd’s approach.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Boyd finally answers some of those questions [about George Harrison and Eric Clapton]—but on her own terms.”—USA Today

“Sixties model Pattie Boyd opens up about her rocky relationships with two of music’s most famed performers.”—Harper’s Bazaar

“[Wonderful Tonight] will thrill classic-rock buffs with a taste for scandal.”—Entertainment Weekly

“A backstage pass into a life with icons and iconic songs. As open and honest as an acoustic performance, Boyd shares the tumult and happiness of her life.”—On-the-Town magazine

“They say if you can remember the ’60s, you weren’t really there. Well, Pattie Boyd was there, and she remembers it all. Wonderful Tonight is a unique gospel of a turbulent time by someone who was in the very eye of the rock ’n’ roll hurricane.”—Sydney Morning Herald

“Pattie Boyd married two sixties legends and inspired three of the era’s greatest love songs, but life was far from glamorous. The ex-wife of George Harrison and Eric Clapton speaks out in this compelling autobiography. —Sunday Times (London)

“There are so many wonderful stories in Pattie Boyd’s life: Falling in love with a Beatle. Falling in love with another famous rock star, Eric Clapton, and being serenaded with ‘Wonderful Tonight.’ . . . There is much that is excruciating in her life story . . . but here she is: not dead, not on drugs, not an alcoholic, but a survivor.”—Daily Mail (London)
