Customer Reviews

Peter Guralnick's writings on music an musicians are unique in the literature of American popular culture. His first three books, Feel Like Going Home, Lost Highway, and Sweet Soul Music-which together form a sort of trilogy that has achieved classic status-trace twentieth-century American popular music to its roots by bringing to life the people, the songs, and the performances that forever changed not only the American music scene but America itself.

This stirring tribute to American roots music-country, rockabilly, and the blues-spotlights artists both celebrated and obscure, including Hank Snow, Bobby "Blue" Bland, Scotty Moore, Elvis Presley, Mickey Gilley, and Merle Haggard. Guralnick conveys the passion that drove these men to music-making and that kept them, determinedly and sometimes despairingly, on the road.
