Product Description

Product Description
By far and away the most candid rock 'n' roll autobiography ever written, Walk This Way is the complete story of five incomparable and uncompromising musical artists who pulled themselves up from nowhere to become rock icons; who crashed and burned spectacularly ; and who rose up gloriously from the ashes to reclaim their rightful titles as World Champion Rockers. But much more than a chronicle of brain-numbing excess, it is a breathtaking study in genius - an exhilarationg look deep inside the music: what spawned and inspired, birthed and moulded the sound that still blows a nation away with the force of a hurricane. This is Aerosmith unbound, where they came from, what they are now, and what they always will be, first and foremost: a truly great American band. Hang on, it's a hell of a ride.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Aerosmith book I've ever seen, 7 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This book starts right from the beginning and tells the whole story. Interviews with the band members are the base, and Davis gets contributions from figures from Aerosmith's past and present. Well written and extremely readable, anyone who is interested in Aerosmith will find it impossible to put down.

Because the band were involved in the writing, you get the full, honest story with the bad bits left in. Walk This Way tells the tale of Aerosmith's rise, fall, and phoenix-like return to the top.

If you've ever experienced the magic of Aerosmith, read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars It tells you stuff that not many are willing to share, 9 Jul 2000
By A Customer
When i first picked this book up i was expecting the same old mediocre kind of biography, boy how i was wrong! This book tells you not only the highs of such a terrific band but also more lows than you can imagine happened. You feel at one with the band you are reading about, you read things that make you laugh, cry and stunned. Its no way a boring book, once you pick it up you cant put it down and you could read it over and over. I recomend this to everyone even if you aren't the biggest Aerosmith fan its still a good ol' read!

5.0 out of 5 stars ''Amazing'', 6 Nov 2006
I loved this book.
I have been a fan of Aerosmith for as long as I can remember. I was greatly influenced by my dad, who constantly listened to they're earlier stuff, and Get A Grip album. I received this as a birthday present, and although I saw many mis-spellings, and to be honest, it took me several attempts to get into the book, it was fascinating, reading about everyone's stories about growing up, and how they got into the whole music business, as well as reading they're families and managers stories, etc.

I recommend this book to any Aerosmith fan.

I have also heard about Aerosmith planning on coming to the UK after such a long time, and I can't wait until they do, it will be great if I could go and see them.

A super read!!!
