Rob_J Joined: Sep 29, 2007 Posts: 500 Sacto, CA	Posted on Jan 03 2008 12:02 PM I'm in the middle of the Eric Clapton autobiography, titled, oddly enough, "Clapton". I don't know how that man is still alive today. What an inspiration to see how someone so far down salvaged a life and career and is now helping others who have been down the same road. Still on my list to read, are "Shakey", the story of Neil Young, and "Bad Moon Rising", the Creedence Clearwater story. Top

Sadly, that speaks volumes about his kids.... ~B~ Top

The author doesn't pull any punches about Neil's, shall we say, questionable application of quality control. -Warren — That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. Top
