Ramblings Of A Rock & Roll Nobody Simon Aston

Follow the highs and lows in a life of a rock and roll nobody. Simon Aston could and should have been a rock and roll star, if his view of his musical talent was a reality and he had any musical ability at all. Unfortunately, he wasn't blessed with the talent he thought he had, so he never became a rock God. Instead, he immersed himself in music throughout his sixty odd years. This book takes a light hearted look at his life and the music that has played such an important part in it. From his early introduction to the pop world to his idolisation of Bruce Springsteen, read about his adventures following bands from a variety of genres, including rock, country, folk, punk, heavy metal and progressive rock. Learn about the songs, albums, singers and bands which have played such a huge part in his life, and find out why his brush with rock stardom playing drums in the sadly under rated band Monument Valley was the nearest he got to his rock and roll dream.***** "This is a brilliant book" (his wife)***** "He really did run over my foot at that gig" (his son)
