Synopsis
One of Rolling Stone Magazine's 25 Greatest Rock Memoirs of All Time For the first time, rock music icon Gregg Allman, one of the founding members of The Allman Brothers Band, tells the full story of his life and career in My Cross to Bear. No subject is taboo, as one of the true giants of rock 'n' roll opens up about his Georgia youth, his long struggle with substance abuse, his string of bad marriages (including his brief union with superstar Cher), the tragic death of brother Duane Allman, and life on the road in one of rock's most legendary bands., One of Rolling Stone Magazine 's 25 Greatest Rock Memoirs of All Time For the first time, rock music icon Gregg Allman, one of the founding members of The Allman Brothers Band, tells the full story of his life and career in My Cross to Bear . No subject is taboo, as one of the true giants of rock 'n' roll opens up about his Georgia youth, his long struggle with substance abuse, his string of bad marriages (including his brief union with superstar Cher), the tragic death of brother Duane Allman, and life on the road in one of rock's most legendary bands., One of Rolling Stone Magazine's 25 Greatest Rock Memoirs of All Time One of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2012 As one of the greatest rock icons of all time, Gregg Allman has lived it all and then some. Now he tells the unflinching story of his life, offering the definitive account of the legendary Allman Brothers Band. From run-ins with the law to meeting girls on the road to experimenting with drugs, Gregg holds nothing back, while also speaking, for the first time, about the painful deaths of his brother, Duane, and bassist Berry Oakley. Describing the powerful impact that Duane's death had on him, Gregg explains how the band's decision to persevere came with a heavy price-for the band and for Gregg-as he fought a battle with substance abuse that led him to rehab eleven times before he finally cleaned up for good. Capturing the Allman Brothers' ongoing, triumphant resurgence, My Cross to Bear is an honest, fascinating glimpse inside one of the most beloved and notorious bands in the history of rock music.

    A rocky start after I had to NUDGE the Seller into checking on my order after MORE than a week with NOTHING happening... But Seller communication was GOOD and the item showed up, well packaged, within the delivery window. Item was well priced, and they had a series that I STRUGGLED to find elsewhere, in NEW condition. I would recommend this seller if you can't find it elsewhere, that's the best I can give them.

    I Liked This Book....

    I have just been hired by an Allman Brothers Tribute Band. So, I figured I should get some history.... dig a little deeper. You could call me a "method" musician when needed. Anyway... I began reading this book and found it to be rather overly folksy and almost contrived. But the subject matter was compelling, so I trudged on. And after a while the words & the anectdotal writing style seem to almost make you feel like you were there listening to the author tell his tale in front of a fireplace. The book rings honest and true; even if sometimes unbelievable. Names are dropped casually and without pretense, while understanding the deep down mask of a life he was living. It's a story of Triumph & Tragedy... Success & Failure... Man it's a story of nearly 5 Decades of Rock & Roll. Certainly ...

  • Music and Blues lovers !

    Gregg rocks the epic novel of his life and music, compelling, can't put it down. Realistic read, and heartfelt honesty as only a southern bluesman can be.
