Cherry on Top

Starring Bobby Bird

By: Carson Mell

Narrated by: Carson Mell

Vice magazine says, “Bobby Bird has lived enough lives and wild times for a couple Willie Nelsons and maybe one Mick Jagger.”

Sometimes recording an album is easy for Bobby Bird, and sometimes it's hard. But never has it been harder than the time he recorded "Cherry on Top."

Carson Mell's first novel, Saguaro, chronicled rock legend's Bobby Bird's entire life, save for the period when the rock star was at the peak of his fame, a period that caused Bobby too much shame and embarrassment to illuminate. In Cherry on Top, Bobby Bird shines a light on one of those hilarious and harrowing years when the world was Bobby's oyster and he was absolutely out of control.

After an affair with a taken woman leads to a blood-drenched and thoroughly incriminating evening, Bobby is whisked away by the all-powerful Colony Records to their "Safe House Seven" in the middle of the Mojave Desert. As he struggles to meet the record label's demands to record a new album and a hit single, he is thrown into a life or death battle with a homicidal record producer, giant lizards, and, perhaps most of all, himself.

In Cherry On Top, Bobby tells his story in his own words and - taking full advantage of the audiobook format - in his own songs.

This might be my favorite book. Ever.
Carson is hilarious as Bobby Bird, and the music a really great accompaniment to the story. Bravo.

Now let’s get the movie.

Underrated

The narrator is such an interesting rock star parody that feels grounded and relatable. Mell excels at creating fictional memoirs and journals.

Fell asleep

Found myself dozing off.It is narrated in a monotone on a subject I am not interested in. Thought it would be a fun read. Oh well, live and learn.
