Book Description
The rip-roaring, spandex-wearing, groupy-loving autobiography of David Lee Roth, lead singer of one of America's biggest ever groups -Van Halen.
From the Back Cover
"'Larger than life' is an overused epithet in this day and age. For 'Diamond Dave' it just about suffices." Q Magazine
THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A ROCK 'N' ROLL STAR
From Indiana to Hollywood
From Van Halen to the Super Band
"If you're looking for an exacting history to the month, to the year, that's not how I remember it. This is not a recitation of what I did, you already know that I did it. This is why I did it or how it was done - nine and a half times out of ten times, being clearly not what you expected. Me neither." David Lee Roth
