Bill Bruford, once called the godfather of progressive-rock
drumming, has been at the top of his profession for four decades.
This is his memoir of life at the heart of prog rock, art rock, and
modern jazz, playing with Yes, King Crimson, Genesis, Earthworks
and many more. It is an honest and entertaining account of life on
the road and in the studio, rubbing shoulders with the famous, the
less famous, and the infamous, and creating an impressive tally of
great music. A rock musician with the temperament of a classical
musician who became a jazz musician, Bruford defies all the cliches
about drummers. He says: "You write what you have to write, you
play what you have to play, because you cannot sleep at night. If
you can sleep at night, you shouldn't be doing this anyway." From
time to time, at polite dinner parties, someone will ask Bill what
he does. He replies that he is a musician. "Yes, but what do you
really do?" retorts the enquirer. This unusual, funny and
insightful music memoir answers that question.
