Résumé
The long-awaited memoir by Cameron Crowe-one of America's most iconic journalists and filmmakers-revealing his formative years in rock and roll and bringing to life stories that shaped a generation, in the bestselling tradition of Patti Smith's Just Kids. If you've seen Almost Famous, you may think you know this story, but you don't.
'Cameron has written a book that feels like music, an intimate souvenir, like a song you can't stop listening to' STEVIE NICKS
'If you're a lover of music, or you've ever been in love, then you have something to say.
Cameron has always been someone who knows just how to say it' HARRY STYLES 'Lyrical and compulsively readable' GUARDIAN Cameron Crowe was an unlikely rock and roll insider. Born in 1957 to parents who strictly banned the genre from their house, he dove headfirst into the world of music. By the time he graduated high school at fifteen, Crowe was already contributing to Rolling Stone magazine.
With his parents uneasily convinced, he went on to interview and tour with icons like Led Zeppelin; Lynyrd Skynyrd; Bob Dylan; Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Fleetwood Mac. Crowe spends his teens politely turning down the drugs and turning on his tape recorder. He talks his journalism teacher into giving him class credit for his road trip covering Led Zeppelin's 1975 tour, which lands him - and the band - on the cover of Rolling Stone.
He hunkers down with David Bowie as the sequestered genius transforms himself into a new persona: The Thin White Duke. Why did they give him such unprecedented access? 'Because you're young enough to be honest, ' Bowie tells him. At its heart, The Uncool is a surprisingly intimate family drama that charts the path that leads Crowe to writing and directing some of the most beloved films of the past forty years.
It's a touching and joyful dispatch from a lost world, a chronicle of the real-life events that became Almost Famous and a coming-of-age journey filled with music legends as you've never seen them before. 'A winning blend of family portrait, rock history, and coming-of-age movies' KIRKUS REVIEWS 'His clarity of observation and memory, his choice words, his people - Cameron Crowe, wonderfully, continues to serve us' WES ANDERSON
