The long-awaited memoir by Cameron Crowe—one of America’s most iconic journalists and filmmakers—is a joyful dispatch from a lost world, a chronicle of the real-life events that became Almost Famous, and a coming-of-age journey filled with music legends as you’ve never seen them before.
Captures an extraordinarily inventive period in which rock music was stretching out in all directions ... While his journalistic ethics may have wilted in the megawatt glow of his favourite rock stars, Crowe’s writing style flourished. In The Uncool, he succinctly evokes both eccentric characters and the era they represented.
Riveting ... Crowe delivers a memoir that is both a backstage pass to rock ‘n’ roll and a master class in storytelling, warm, vivid, and irresistibly uncool in the best way.
Captivating ... This is a remarkable and moving memoir, with an engaging and unforgettable cast of characters, that will resonate well beyond fans of celebrated '70s music.
