Format:Paperback
This is a fascinating book. If you are interested in learning more on the characters of the A List celebrities, including Mick Jagger & Michael Jackson to name but a few, then buy this book. Walter Yetnikoff does not come across as a nice guy, but he does come across honestly. Beware, there are a few fairly explicit details in this book, & if you are comfortable with reading such details, then I recommend this book. This is real fast lane stuff !
Format:Paperback
A wharts and all book on the music business at its most interesting - though of most interest to colleagues and those to whom the key industry names behind the spotlights mean something. His perspective through and through and at least 'he was there.' Arrived timeously and in good condition.
Format:Paperback
Michael Jackson features in this book as does Bob Dylan and both of their myths are exposed. If this is the kind of thing you're looking for and want coarse language and speaking about corporate finance, maybe think about getting this silly story of the music industry spanning from the 60s to the late 80s.

Not QUITE as "juicy" as the cover states but still a damn good read

Honest writing that gives a window into a world beyond most of us
One of those books you want to read in one sitting. Yetnikoff comes aross as a not very nice man back in the day when he was high on drugs, booze and women. Read more
