Publisher's Summary From Chrissie Hynde, one of rock's most iconic, alluring, kick-ass, and (let's face it) sexy women, a brilliant, no-holds-barred memoir of a rock life lived to the hilt. Chrissie Hynde, the songwriter and front woman of The Pretenders in its various incarnations, has for 35 years been one of the most admired and adored and imitated figures in rock. This long-awaited memoir tells her life story in full and utterly fascinating detail, from her all-American Ohio '50s childhood to her classic baby-boomer seduction by the rock of the '60s to her sojourn in the crucible of punk that was '70s London to her instant emergence with her band, The Pretenders, in 1980 into stardom as a frontwoman and songwriter. She brings a fantastic eye for detail, a withering and sardonic sense of humor, and a fearless and sometimes naked emotional honesty to her memoir, and every line, every word of it is unmistakably hers. It is sure to be recognized as a classic of rock literature - and, man, is it fun to listen to. With an introduction read by Chrissie Hynde. ©2015 Chrissie Hynde (P)2015 Random House Audio

A little too gritty & in your face contrarian for my taste. Maybe if Chrissie narrated the book herself or if the narrator had a less giggly & more of a rock & roll voice I would have felt the intensity.As informative as Chrissie's book is about the debilitating effects that drugs had on the music industry, where is the discovery & revelation that music saved many from that spiral? Maybe I was looking for a deeper understanding of her struggles in a primarily male industry.
