The answer is Jerry Masters Jerry started his music career playing
bass for the great Charlie Rich and before the first decade was
over he had moved on touring with Ronny and the Daytonas supporting
the hit song, Little GTO. From the musicians of that group he went
on to form The Hombres who had the hit song, Let It All Hang Out, a
song that has experienced a revival on You Tube and on the hit TV
show, Cold Case.
With over 50 years in rock music, Jerry Masters went from sixties
rock star to recording engineer, working with many of the most
recognized performers in the world. He mixed and engineered some of
the greatest songs and recordings of our time.
Jerry then moved on to make Rock and Roll history with the
remarkably creative folks at Muscle Shoals Sound. Were it not for
the incredible work at that North Alabama recording studio Rock
Music would have a huge hole in its history. Jerry reinvented
himself in the seventies and went from playing music to creating
music with the greatest entertainers and musicians in the business.
He quickly became one of the best recording engineers to sit at a
console.
Jerry's new book is a fabulous and fun read. While the news and
the music magazines may have told you what the publicists and the
handlers of the stars wanted you to know, Jerry shares wonderful
behind the scenes stories of working with the world's greatest
stars. This is not a "dirt" book or "tell all." It is clear in
every chapter that Jerry had great respect and became dear friends
with most all of the people he worked with in music. In fact he
rat's himself out more than anything and shares honestly how he
made his way through the alley's of the rock scene and
survived.
Hanging From A Tree By My Knees is a wonderful journey through the
back door of Rock Music where we get to see how the people we don't
know made success possible for the names we do recognize. Jerry
Masters was just one of those hidden treasures and man what a ride
he had.
