[A] powerful tell-all

A Must for Die-Hard Kinks Fans

Very open, honest and detailed autobiography. What an interesting life. I’m now an even bigger Dave Davies fan. I always prefer the author being the narrator, but the narrator here did a fantastic job portraying Dave’s attitude and unique perspective.

Great Autobiography

I didn’t know what to expect but I was pleasantly surprised I thought it was a very entertaining autobiography full of interesting stories and a lot of behind the scenes stuff. Dave seems like a very down to earth guy and was brutally honest in telling the good things in his life and the bad things. If you’re a Kinks fan it’s a must listen.

So much detail about his life!

I loved going through the career of Dave and the kinks. Loved hearing about his family and life in the road. His stroke and recovery. Great book!

Entertaining and honest memoir

What an amazing page turner brimming with Dave’s brutal honesty and humor. A must read for fans of the Kinks, the swinging 60s and what happened after.

Lack of accountability

Dave let down most of his family most of the time. He is kooky and unreliable. He is also bitter that record companies did not understand his solo works. He blames a lot of his challenges in life on his brother Ray. I can't wait to hear Ray Davies account of their relationship.
