About this product

Product Information

Ain't Got No Cigarettes is Roger Miller's extraordinary life as told in taped interviews by those that knew him best: more than sixty well-known musicians and entertainers including Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson. A man who influenced some of the entertainment industry's biggest stars, Roger Miller was respected and loved by his peers. However, with the genius came a dark side. In the 1960s and 1970s he was known for walking off stage halfway through a show, getting into fights and going days without sleep. He struggled with depression and had a serious addiction to drugs which cost him two marriages. Miller died at the age of 56 in 1992.

First /only book on the King of the Road - Roger Miller
Quotes from different reviews: "I find it exceptional. A must-read book!"- Legendary DJ Bill Mack As Featured in The New York Times - Music Chronicle "...In this collection of Q. and A.'s with dozens of illustrious country artists and fixtures of the Nashville scene, [Lyle E Style] ostensibly recounts the life of the musician and raconteur Roger Miller, of "King of the Road" and "Dang Me" fame, who died of cancer in 1992. But through a quirk of deliberate or accidental genius, what Style has actually assembled is a living document of country music in its hootin', hollerin' outlaw heyday, when the D.J. Captain Midnight ruled the airwaves, Tootsie's Orchid Lounge was the ultimate hangout and everyone, it seems, was on cocaine — even the mimes. Along the way, Style learns some unprescribed ...

But through a quirk of deliberate or accidental genius, what Style has actually assembled is a living document of country music in its hootin', hollerin' outlaw heyday, when the D.J. Captain Midnight ruled the airwaves, Tootsie's Orchid Lounge was the ultimate hangout and everyone, it seems, was on cocaine — even the mimes. Along the way, Style learns some unprescribed uses for diet pills, discovers that Miller's King of the Road Hotel may have been owned by the mob and reignites an old feud between Tompall Glaser and Waylon Jennings..." - Dave Itzkoff - The New York Times “Singer/Songwriter Lyle E Style has put together just the right type of book to celebrate and remember Roger Miller. Rather than churn out the standard biography, Style’s work lets the people who really knew, admired and loved him, tell their stories. The result is a book that’s sometimes hilarious, sometimes troubling and sometimes poignant, one that gives readers far more detail and insight into the Miller personality than any academic chronicle. …As distinctive as he was versatile and unusual, Roger Miller’s charm and skill is wonderfully outlined in this valuable account.” – Ron Wynn, American Songwriter Magazine "...This is an absorbing reflection on the life of an absorbing man and a true character..." - Craig Baguley, Country Music People Magazine - London, England http://countrymusic.about.com/od/bookreviews/gr/aintgotcigs.htm http://www.countrymusicnews.ca/news.ihtml?step=2&article_id=1001 Forum/Review of book: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/chat/1702856/posts?page=74 --- Roger Miller, best known for his hit songs “King of the Road” and “Dang Me,” was an uncategorizable talent. His music blurred the boundaries between the country and pop genres, giving him status as a major crossover artist. He held the record for the most Grammys ever won until 1983. Johnny Cash called him a “sparkplug” that ignited the creativity in others. Roger was an innovative songwriter with a lightening-fast wit. To those that knew him, Roger was a genius in every way. He wrote dozens of hit songs, hosted TV shows, and wrote the music for the Broadway Tony award-winning musical Big River. But with genius came a dark side. In the 1960s and 1970s he was known to walk off stage halfway through a show, get into fights and go days without sleep. He had a serious addiction to drugs, which cost him two marriages, a network television show and possibly superstardom. Ain’t Got No Cigarettes delves into the amazing life of Roger Miller as told in interviews with some of the entertainment industry’s biggest stars. Read untold stories of their own careers, their take on the business and, most of all, why they all revered the legendary “King of the Road.” “It’s a gem!” – Twang Nation “This is a thoroughly enjoyable book, one you just can’t put down until you’ve read every page and even then it leaves you wishing there were another 10 chapters.” - Country Music News --- FOREWORD by Country Superstar TOBY KEITH doitwithstyle.com!
