Publisher's Summary

In this extraordinary memoir, world-renowned guitarist Andy Summers provides a revealing and passionate account of a life dedicated to music. From his first guitar at age 13 and his early days on the English music scene to the ascendancy of his band, The Police, Summers recounts his relationships and encounters with the Big Roll Band, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, the Animals, John Belushi, and others, all the while proving himself a master of telling detail and dramatic anecdote.

But of course, the early work is only part of the story, and Andy's account of his role as guitarist for The Police---a gig that was only confirmed by a chance encounter with drummer Stewart Copeland on a London train---has been long-awaited by music fans worldwide. The heights of fame that The Police achieved have rarely been duplicated, and the band's triumphs were rivaled only by the personal chaos that such success brought about, an insight never lost on Summers in the telling.

One Train Later is a constantly surprising and poignant memoir, the work of a world-class musician and a first-class writer.

Profile Image for Kelly Coe-hegy

interesting insight to a guitarists life.

this story is the full deal of Andy's life. I, personally, found it interesting and inspiring to continue practice playing. I do, however, feel that this might not be for everyone as there are areas that are quite detailed and not captivating.
but all in all.. I really enjoyed it.. having Andy narrate the book makes the difference for sure.. if someone else was reading it, it just wouldnt cut it.
Thanks for sharing.
