Not sure, but I suspect that this is a relatively small sub-genre of books. Of course there's a huge quantity of books on music theory, music history, biographies of musicians, etc, etc, but I hope the topic of this thread is more manageable. Off the top of my head I can only think of a handful of famous musicians who have had the time, discipline or inspiration to write a book, but I am prepared to be surprised:
Brian Wilson: Wouldn't It Be Nice John French: Beefheart Through the Eyes of Magic Leonard Cohen: Beautiful Losers Bob Dylan: Tarantula (which generated this huge thread: https://www.musicbanter.com/media/60...tarantula.html) Bob Dylan: Chronicles John Lennon: In His Own Write and A Spaniard In The Works (frequently published in one volume) Gerald Moore: Am I too loud? Eric Clapton: The Autobiography Posh Spice: Learning To Fly So this is an invitation to expand that list, and talk about the books by famous musicians that you've read, would recommend, or have just heard of and wondered about.
