Dave Stewart's life has been a wild ride--one filled with music, constant reinvention, and the never-ending drive to create. Now the prolific musician, songwriter, and producer behind Eurythmics and dozens of pop hits shares the never-before-told stories of his life in music--the drugs and the parties, the A-list collaborations and relationships, and the creative process that brought us blockbusters like Tom Petty's "Don't Come Around Here No More," Bon Jovi's "Midnight in Chelsea," and Celine Dion's "Taking Chance." With a behind-the-scenes look at Stewart's innovative endeavors that keep him on the cutting-edge of the music business, this is a one-of-a-kind glimpse into the creative heart of one of its most gifted and enterprising contributors.
"The Eurythmics' Stewart looks back on a charmed life in this
satisfying memoir."--People "He's the musician's
musician."--Rolling Stone "Dave is a dreamer and a fearless
innovator, a visionary of high order, [and] an explosive musician
[who] innately recognizes the genius in other people and puts it
into play without being manipulative."--Bob Dylan "Jack of All
Trades Master of All of Them."--The Sunday Times (UK) "A terrific
songwriter, guitarist, and producer."--USA Today "Dave and I are
indelibly woven into each other's history. Like the three
musketeers rolled into two, we were compadres on a great big roller
coaster ride of creative adventure. There is no fiction stranger
than truth. I know because I lived through it. Miraculously we both
survived!"--Annie Lennox "In 2010, I spent an entire year with Dave
making a record called In Your Dreams at my house in Los Angeles.
It was the 'best year of my life.' But now, I really see what it
meant to me; it meant everything. He allowed me to be my most
creative self. He is my hero. The memories of those days still take
my breath away. Thanks Dave. It was real....beautiful."--Stevie
Nicks
"Genuinely impressive...Sure to interest not only Eurythmics fans
and anyone with fond memories of Eighties pop music, but those
curious about the wide-ranging creative endeavors of a prolific
collaborator and musician."--Library Journal
