Editorial Reviews

Entertainment Weekly
Well turned, sometimes salty...refreshing...candid...poignant....An honest spotlight on a passel of colorful characters....One of the best of country's tell-alls, as warm, peculiar, and individualistic as Jennings's music itself.
From The Critics
As good a book about American popular music as one is likely to find.

    Greatest autobiography I've read ever written

    There are not many books that I can read from beginning to end and then pick up again a month later and reread it again. This is one of them. It is inspiring, tragic, funny and emotional. A definite read for all fans of Waylon, fans of country music and fans of autobiographies in general. Given five stars only because there is six star rating.
