Rik Emmett
Acerca de esta escucha
From Triumph superstar Rik Emmett comes the thrilling, inspiring story of a life of rock and roll.
While describing the impulse driving his life and work, Rik Emmett explains, "I was never in it for the sex and drugs-ah, but the rock and roll. Creativity was, and still is, my it-the truth I bet my life on. It was also, always, about play. The play's the thing . . ."
Merging memoir, anecdotes, and masterclasses on guitar, songwriting, and the artist's mindset, Lay It on the Line offers insight and perspective into the many roles Rik Emmett took on. "It" was always a parboiling, psychological gumbo: and this book attempts to finally share the recipe.
It also includes the definitive, detailed reasons behind why he walked from Triumph-and came back two decades later.
Rock star, it seems, was a character for Rik Emmett to inhabit . . . a great gig, a catalytic door-opener . . . it was a role that led to other adventures-and these are the stories he's chosen to tell.

Born Vincent Capuccio on December 3, 1955, Vinnie Stigma—as his countless friends and fans lovingly refer to him—is the founder and guitarist of New York City's legendary hardcore band Agnostic Front. He's also one of the Big Apple's earliest punk rockers, having frequented such eclectic downtown haunts as Max's Kansas City, The Electric Circus, and of course, CBGB while it was still known as Hilly's on the Bowery during the early 1970s.

One of the few indisputable geniuses of pop music, Sly Stone is a trailblazer and a legend. He created a new kind of music, mixing Black and white, male and female, funk and rock. As a songwriter, he penned some of the most iconic anthems of the 1960s and ’70s, from “Everyday People” to “Family Affair.” As a performer, he electrified audiences with a persona and stage presence that set a lasting standard for pop-culture performance.

In this intimate and open account—nothing like any rock-and-roll memoir you’ve ever read—Alex Van Halen shares his personal story of family, friendship, music and brotherly love in a remarkable tribute to his beloved brother and band mate. In his rough yet sweet voice, Alex recounts the brothers’ childhood, first in the Netherlands and then in working class Pasadena, California, with an itinerant musician father and a very proper Indonesian-born mother.

In 1972, Elliot Mintz installed a red light in his bedroom in Laurel Canyon. When it started flashing, it meant that either John Lennon or Yoko Ono—or sometimes both—were calling him. Which they did almost every day for nearly ten years, engaging Mintz in hours-long late-night phone conversations that all but consumed him for the better part of a decade. In We All Shine On, Mintz—a former radio and television host in Los Angeles—recounts the story of how their unlikely friendship began and where it led him over the years.

As an A&R man at Epic Records, Tom Werman helped introduce the world to REO Speedwagon, Boston, Ted Nugent, and Cheap Trick; he also discovered KISS, Rush, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, but his record label passed on all of them. Then, as an independent producer, he oversaw landmark albums by Mötley Crüe, Twisted Sister, Lita Ford, Jeff Beck, Poison, and many more. All in all, his record-making resume includes twenty-three gold- or platinum-selling albums and cumulative sales of more than fifty-two million copies.

The lack of Triumph
I hated the fact that such a scant part of this book was about Triumph. This was the main reason I bought this book. It’s more about family, business and stuff that sounds like it’s from his music courses. It’s a total disappointment for Triumph fans, a slap in the face.

Dull
Incredibly uninteresting that puts the lie to the description on the cover. TL;DR - he believes he is an artist, he loves his family, undeserving of his wife, Mike and Gil didn't live up to his standards, and he's a fiscally conservative humanist who believes government is bad.
It meanders all over the place, where he's time hopping even within the same chapter. I love Triumph, I was underwhelmed by Rik solo and now perhaps, I know why. The other reviews have it right. Self-indulgent. And the way he dumps all over his bandmates strongly suggesting they didn't put in the work to keep up with his stellar musicianship is frankly offensive. The band is the reason he has a name and he spends a dismissive chapter talking about that part of his life. But boy is he good about setting rules and boundaries. He's in a band and they could only perform Thursday to Sunday so he could be home the rest of the time? How do you properly tour with those kinds of restrictions?
Don't waste your time or money.

Hoping for less politics, and more rock. N roll
Boring, and self indulgent . I wanted to hear about his career, not his beliefs had a hard d time concentrating on his ramblings

Back stage pass to nothing
Very little about his career. Reads like a self help book. Not what I expected at all.
