The Dave Grohl Story

by JeffApter (Author)

Synopsis

Teenage punk, self-taught musician, bandleader, session man, smoker, drinker, multi-millionaire, David Grohl has achieved a rare feat - a rock 'n' roll double crown having been a member of two hugely successful and influential bands - Nirvana and The Foo Fighters. Loaded with candid interviews and hard truths about Grohl's life in music, this is the first comprehensive biography of an icon whose career charts rock and roll's rise and fall over the past two decades. It details his drumming and touring with Queens of the Stone Age and Nine Inch Nails, and his battle over Nirvana's legacy with Courtney Love.

Media Reviews
For fans of the Foos and Nirvana this is norhing short of essential - Record Collector ...a well-researched and balanced portrait of this ex-'punk pothead' ... handily doubles as an excellent overview of alternative rock in the last quarter century - Kerrang!
