From Graham Nash--the legendary musician and founding member of
the iconic bands Crosby, Stills & Nash and The Hollies--comes a
candid and riveting autobiography that belongs on the reading list
of every classic rock fan.
Graham Nash's songs defined a generation and helped shape the
history of rock and roll--he's written over 200 songs, including
such classic hits as "Carrie Anne," "On A Carousel," "Simple Man,"
"Our House," "Marrakesh Express," and "Teach Your Children." From
the opening salvos of the British Rock Revolution to the last
shudders of Woodstock, he has rocked and rolled wherever music
mattered. Now Graham is ready to tell his story: his lower-class
childhood in post-war England, his early days in the British
Invasion group The Hollies; becoming the lover and muse of Joni
Mitchell during the halcyon years, when both produced their most
introspective and important work; meeting Stephen Stills and David
Crosby and reaching superstardom with Crosby, Stills, Nash &
Young; and his enduring career as a solo musician and political
activist. Nash has valuable insights into a world and time many
think they know from the outside but few have experienced at its
epicenter, and equally wonderful anecdotes about the people around
him: the Beatles, the Stones, Hendrix, Cass Elliot, Dylan, and
other rock luminaries. From London to Laurel Canyon and beyond,
"Wild Tales" is a revealing look back at an extraordinary
life--with all the highs and the lows; the love, the sex, and the
jealousy; the politics; the drugs; the insanity--and the sanity--of
a magical era of music.
