A fun look at harcore music geeks
Sunday, May 30, 2010 at 12:53 AM
I consider myself a music geek so it was fun to hear a Soundcheck interview with Steve Almond, author of "Rock and Roll Will Save Your Life."
Almond is a bit more over the top in his music passion than I am but I do share his unabashed appreciation of guilty pleasures. I too owned a few Styx and Toto albums back in the day, and still consider Side 1 of Toto's "Hydra" well worth my time. Drummers know what I'm talking about.
I've downloaded a sample of the book onto my Kindle. I'll let you know what I think, but 17 customer reviews so far peg it at 4.5 stars.
