fascinating journey through the universe of music
From Jeff woods, best known as a radio personality with an amazing multi themed series about the history of popular music , especially in the pop and rock n roll realms the book is narrated by the man himself and the audiobook contains more content unavailable elsewhere. Think of it as an autobiography, lesson in history, getting inside the minds of amazing musical artists and then some. A real treat!

Never dull or a lull: The coolest stories ever told.
Learn how to bookmark cause your going listen to this again (& again).
A great listen for rock music fans, make that a MUST LISTEN. This is an equal real life companion to Camron Crows’ movie “Almost Famous”.
Amazing, inspiring interviews with Angus Young, Sammy Hagar, Neil Pearl, David Bowie and the Fleetwood Macs, LED Zeppelins, Pink Floyd’s and Holes too. Jeff Woods tells stories about Rockers and Rock radio people ( some of who I know, that were new to me) and its celebs that are captivating and entertaining. If you love rock, you’ve found the perfect audiobook, written and narrated by a kindred sprit.

Can’t Stop Listening
Jeff Woods is a quintessential story teller. His retrospection of the history of rock is emphasized by his personal life experiences. His story is told from the heart leaving his soul exposed for his readers/listeners.
His ability to glean the subtle nuances of the many rock legends he has interviewed is testament to his in-depth knowledge and understanding of the profession.
While listening to this book, you will be carried away by Jeff’s hypnotic, mellow voice. His love of music is evident in his flawless delivery and rings with an overwhelming quality of sincerity.
I couldn’t possibly recommend this book more. I guarantee you will listen to it more than once.
