Product Description
Book Description
Further Adventrures of a Grumpy Old Rock Star is a collection of never-before-told stories from his amazing life.
Product Description
What do Postman Pat, Tommy Cooper, Norman Wisdom and George Best have in common with being abandoned in a Costa Rican jungle after a severe bout of flatulence? Indeed, how are they also connected to trying to buy an Australian brewery just to get a beer, owning twenty-two cars, an American soccer team and a Swiss mail-order pornography company?
The common feature is of course a certain Richard Wakeman.
The Further Adventures of a Grumpy Old Rock Star takes you, the privileged reader, on a trip of absurd excess, a cultural car crash of side-splitting hilarity and an unforgettable glimpse (again) into the life of one of Britain's most legendary showmen, rock stars and all-time great raconteurs.

Format:Paperback
Even better, if possible, than Adventures of a Grumpy Old Rock Star. Read it at one sitting and laughed quite a few times while doing so. Hope he carries on with some more of these excellent tales.

Format:Paperback
This book can truly be termed a real hoot.There are very few rock artist bio's I have laughed out loud at but Rick's many anecdotes are very funny indeed.He also touches the darker side of his career namely his boozing making a good balance for the reader,nice one Rick,buy it.

Format:Paperback
Entertaining collection of anecdotes from on and off the road. Wakeman is easy to like, and many of his stories are very good indeed. As a few reviewers have noted, there are a few too many tales of showbiz chums thrown in, but this is still an engaging, easy read that feels fun and refreshing. Ideal for a plane or train journey.

Excellent sequel

As Good as The Previous Title
Arrived on schedule. Not read yet - saving it for a long plane journey. The preceeding title was good so that's why it's on hold for a journey !

Hilarious but with added ShowBiz
This is a sequel to the uniformly funny "Grumpy Old Rock Star" and for the most part matches the original in daft, hilarious and odd stories from Wakeman's life in Rock n' Roll. Read more

Good but disjointed
I'm a huge fan of Rick Wakeman, and I gave the first of this series of titles a positive review. I also enjoyed this title as well, but slightly less than the first. Read more
