In his Twenty Year 1965-85 memoir and through a series of vignettes, Mach Bell takes readers back to where it all happened: the little tent where he saw the Jimi Hendrix Experience perform; the jail cell he was tossed into after a teenage bust; life at the Thundertrain mansion and the spot where his first songwriting sessions with Joe Perry took place; the roadhouses and dragways where Thundertrain and the Joe Perry Project headlined nightly; the studios where Once a Rocker Always a Rocker was recorded; and the underground clubs that erupted whenever Mach Bell played.
I GOTTA ROCK is packed with never-before-told stories about fans, bands, rockstars, punks, the Sunset Strip, El Mocambo, groupies, backstage, the Rat and the Boston/NYC rock scene's most vital years. Cowboy gives a fresh perspective on 20 years of the most provocative moments in his turbulent rock'n'roll career.
Mach Bell also provides a detailed and stunning account of the time he spent on the road employed as a roustabout with Circus Vargas just prior to his joining the Joe Perry Project. Humorous run-ins with excited fans, famous musicians and more than one angry club owner. I Gotta Rock is at once a rocking 60's time capsule of the counterculture in Boston and beyond, a 70's reflection on what it means to find oneself as a rock performer, and an 80's tale of a life lived on the wild side. It’s not only a must-read for Cowboy Mach Bell fans, but an essential volume of American pop culture history.
I Gotta Rock, 492 pages. Nearly 200 photographs.
