- Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2018He is the definition of a true musician, knowing from a very young age, this is what I want to do!!! Rick Levy tells us in the title and through the story of his life that he is enjoying a fabulous life, yet is not famous. Reading through this book I couldn't help thinking that perhaps the fact that he is not famous is why he has been able to enjoy his journey all the more. Being a witness to rock and roll history, playing and rubbing elbows with legends, while not burdened with the (sometimes unrealistic) expectations and obligations of being a 'rock-star', has allowed him to focus on what's really important: the music and the joy he gets in playing. A great read!!!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2019If you grew up in the 60's and love the music of that era, this is the book for you. The author takes you back with his story and makes you feel like you are there again. His writing style is great and you feel like it was written by an old friend. I strongly recommend this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2019Rick Levy did what most people wish they could have done, and followed his dreams ,and his love of music. For me, it was a walk down memory lane , reading about so many musicians from that era. A good read.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2018Reading this book was a great romp through the life of a musician. Levy not only has had an illustrious music career, but he keeps learning and adapting over the years to keep his creative lifestyle afloat. I would advise any budding artist to read this book and listen to his advice on how to do what you love most while also continually learning, adapting, and being open to going wherever opportunity takes you.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2019Wonderful journey of how one can find peace and satisfaction at many different levels of an industry. It seems as if Rick was able to judge his successes by his own barometer not the measure of others. There was humor and there was compassion and there was sorrow. I enjoyed this quick read.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2018For all of us 60's kids who had a garage band with one amp and a shared Mic, Rick lets us relive our childhood dreams. The insight into the music world was fascinating and I am glad he continues to rock the 60's.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2018I went to school with Rick in Allentown, enjoyed reading about his life. Well written and easy reading. I Recommend this book.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 8, 2020Good book on Rick Levy's lifetime of the 69s music he grew up into.
