Humorous run-ins with excited fans, famous musicians and more than one angry club owner. I Gotta Rock is at once a rocking 60's time capsule of the counterculture in Boston and beyond, a 70's reflection on what it means to find oneself as a rock performer, and an 80's tale of a life lived on the wild side. It's not only a must-read for Cowboy Mach Bell fans, but an essential volume of American pop culture history. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI Gotta Rock\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e492 pages Nearly 200 photographs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 498\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.11 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 04, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47343915106553,"sku":"9781733471244","price":35.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/MGhnMjV0ZVhPdHNaNHpydS94QlBGZz09.webp?v=1769725062","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/i-gotta-rock-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
