Story
Eric Clapton is far more than a rock star. Like Dylan and McCartney, he is an icon and a living legend. He has sold tens of millions of records, played sell-out concerts all over the world, and been central to the significant musical developments of his era. His guitar playing has seen him hailed as "God". Now, for the first time, Eric tells the story of his personal and professional journeys in this pungent, witty, and painfully honest autobiography.

An early architect of punk rock's sound, style, and fury, whose lip-curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into pop's mainstream as one of MTV's first megastars, Billy Idol remains, to this day, a true rock 'n' roll icon. Now, in his long-awaited autobiography, Dancing with Myself, Idol delivers an electric, searingly honest account of his journey to fame - from his early days as front man of the pioneering UK punk band Generation X to the decadent life atop the dance-rock kingdom he ruled.

Love, Lucy is the valentine Lucille Ball left for her fans—a warm, wise, and witty memoir written by Lucy herself. The legendary star of the classic sitcom I Love Lucy was at the pinnacle of her success when she sat down to record the story of her life. No comedienne had made America laugh so hard, no television actress had made the leap from radio and B movies to become one of the world’s best-loved performers. This is her story—in her own words.

That stammer. Those basset-hound eyes. That bone-dry wit. There has never been another comedian like Bob Newhart. In this, his first audiobook ever, Newhart gives his brilliant and bemused twist on a multitude of topics, including flying, the trials of a family holiday in a Winnebago, and more serious subjects, such as golf. And, of course, there are side-splittingly funny stories from his life and career. Who else has a drinking game named after him? ("Hi, Bob!")

In this incisive memoir, Steve Lukather tells the complete Toto story. He also lifts the lid on what went on behind the closed studio doors, shedding light on the unique creative processes of some of the most legendary names in music: from Quincy Jones, Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, and Elton John to Miles Davis, Joni Mitchell, Bruce Springsteen, and Aretha Franklin. Lukather’s extraordinary tale also encompasses the dark side of stardom and the American Dream. Frank, engaging, and often hilarious, The Gospel According to Luke is no ordinary rock memoir.

If it can happen in show business, it’s happened to Jon Cryer. Now he’s opening up for the first time and sharing his behind-the-scenes stories in a warmly endearing, sharply observed, and frankly funny look at life in Hollywood. In 1986, Jon Cryer won over America as Molly Ringwald’s loyal and lovable best friend, Duckie, in the cult classic Pretty in Pink in a role that set the tone for his three-decade-long career in Hollywood. He went on to establish himself as one of the most talented comedic actors in the business.

Most people know Andrew McCarthy from his movie roles in Pretty in Pink, St. Elmo's Fire, Weekend at Bernie's, and Less Than Zero, and as a charter member of Hollywood's Brat Pack. That iconic group of ingenues and heartthrobs has come to represent both a genre of film and an era of pop culture. In his memoir, McCarthy focuses his gaze on that singular moment in time. The result is a revealing look at coming of age in a maelstrom, reckoning with conflicted ambition, innocence, addiction, and masculinity.

Henry Winkler, launched into prominence as “The Fonz” in the beloved Happy Days, has transcended the role that made him who he is. Brilliant, funny, and widely regarded as the nicest man in Hollywood (though he would be the first to tell you that it’s simply not the case, he’s really just grateful to be here), Henry shares in this achingly vulnerable memoir the disheartening truth of his childhood, the difficulties of a life with severe dyslexia, the pressures of a role that takes on a life of its own, and the path forward once your wildest dream seems behind you.

He also looks back at the most powerful and memorable moments of his long and storied life.

Fascinating Listen
I grew up with Genesis playing in the background as my dad was a big fan. The Phil Collins of the 80’s and 90’s was the backdrop of my teenage years. To hear the story behind the music told so truthfully by the man himself is amazing. Thanks Phil!!!

Entertaining, enlightening walk down memory lane
Very well narrated - as one would expect - with a lot of Collins' trademark joviality. Phil's thoughtful telling of his life in and outside of music is well worth your investment.

Just cannot put it (audibly) down!
Fantastic memoir of one of the best musician, composer, entertainer of the last 50 years. Narrated in a simple yet extremely interesting way. Not Dead Yet is by far the very best biography I have ever read or heard. After having delighted so many with his musical talents, Phil Collins now does the same with his writing skills and the story of his life! Any small or big fan of him or Genesis : this is a must.

Love it , real life story ! Phil reveals everything his high’s and lows ! Found about so much about the man and Genesis and all the people in his life from King Charles to Eric Clapton. Big success professionally comes at the expense of family life ! Would he turn it all again ?

Honest and powerful.
Enjoyed learning the backstory about Genesis and Collins solo career as well as tidbits of his encounter with musics legends. Phil Collins offers a profoundly honest portrait of his life an loves. Was particularly relevant having just recently seen his wonderful performance with Nick his young son on drums in Toronto. Collins is a fighter and is a gifted artist. Thank you for this Phil.

Honest portrayal of a legend's career
I've been on a bit of a musician biography kick lately. I didn't even know Phil Collins has written a book until it came up in my recommendations and as a fan of his work on his own and with Genesis, I gave it a go. I finished it in less than 5 days, it's that much of an "auditory page turner" if you will.
This isn't your typical "sex, drugs and rock and roll" story, though certainly not without a lot of its own tragedy. This is a story of someone incredibly dedicated to his craft, so much so that it leads to massive workaholism, that leads to the failure of 3 marriages and 5 kids scattered across the world, even as Mr. Collins tries his best to be a good and genuine Dad. Interestingly, his problems with substance abuse actually come much later in his life, when he's largely retired from music, in fact, only a few years before the book was written. Not just the failure of his third marriage but indeed, breaking from the endless cycle of recording and touring (largely due to health issues caused by that) is what seems to have sent him down the dark path. Thankfully, he's largely recovered from that.
Like many rock star stories, you'll hear tales of terrible, often stupid choices Mr. Collins made that led to some of his downfalls. He's very candid about them and takes accountability for his parts, something many celebrities don't do in their autobiographies. It's also clear that a lot of the smears the British tabloids loved to lob at him were untrue or at best, heavily distorted versions of the truth.
I found this book very entertaining and both inspiring and in parts, tragic at the same time. Love Phil Collins' music or hate it (personally, I really like most of it), you can't deny he had an incredible work ethic and contributed an incredible amount to the musical trends of the 80s and 90s.
I highly recommend this one.
