Strange Days: The Adventures of a Grumpy Rock 'n' Roll Journalist in Los Angeles

Why did David Bowie start crying in the middle of an interview? Did Phil Collins really call a journalist the nastiest word in the English language? Why did Garth Brooks lose his temper? What was Johnny Cash's house like? Why was Ray Charles' funeral a blast? Was Isaac Hayes the coolest guy on the planet? Why is Mike Love of the Beach Boys tragically underappreciated? Why did soap operas tear apart Aerosmith and the Doors? Who described Pink Floyd's Roger Waters as "a terminal a**hole"? Get the scoop from Dean Goodman, a 20-year veteran of the L.A. music journalism scene. Goodman came to America in 1992 as a jaded 23-year-old business reporter on the trail of his rock 'n' roll heroes, and secured a ringside view of the glamour, the glory and the greed as the music industry enjoyed its last hurrah before the onset of Internet piracy. "Strange Days: The Adventures of a Grumpy Rock 'n' Roll Journalist in Los Angeles," set largely during the 1990s, features brutally tragicomic and insightful reminiscences of unusual encounters with David Bowie, Johnny and June Carter Cash, Mike Love, Steve Cropper, Garth Brooks, Ice-T, Phil Collins, Gene Simmons of KISS, Isaac Hayes, Ray Charles, and members of Aerosmith, the Doors, Queen, Guns N' Roses and INXS.Read more
