Prior to new editions of legendary Man musician Deke Leonard's previous books Rhinos, Winos & Lunatics and Maybe I Should've Stayed in Bed? planned for 2020, we are happy to bring back his 3rd and 4th books in their original editions. This volume picks up his epic journey in 1977. Prog-rock giants Man have imploded and Deke is fighting to resurrect his solo career. Follow his titanic struggle as he stalks the mean streets of LA, searching for the seedy underbelly of the American Dream. Thrill to his ruthless gang warfare with London's criminal underworld and rejoices he makes Smokey Robinson laugh and Phil Lynott cringe before painting the town red with Tina Turner. The inevitable reunion with Man sees the Welsh rock outfit criss-crossing Europe as hey battle to reclaim their status as one of the world's leading acid rock bands. While on tour, Deke gives guitar lessons to Alvin Lee, crosses swords with Wishbone Ash and lectures Eric Burdon on stagecraft - tales told in Deke's inimitable style with his customary dry wit.
