Prolific Rock bassist Rudy Sarzo has written a first-hand account of extreme life on the road for a Rock musician. In his rags-to-riches tale he includes stories of tour mischief, Rock 'n Roll excess, and he gives a much-needed account of one of Rock's greatest guitarists - Randy Rhoads. For anyone interested in the Ozzy Osbourne experience, Rudy's book is the perfect addition to your bookshelf. --T.R. Mills --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
