★★★☆☆
Honest, revealing and a reasonably decent perspective of and into an old rocker – still writing and performing – that has had rather a lot of drugs, booze, a few wives and quite a few offspring.
But, despite seeming a reasonably balanced and sane person these days (and even before, maybe even somewhat during, the drugs and booze), it just all felt a bit, well, not quite anything, despite his stories of his early years, his (and the Quo’s) achievements, accolades, downfalls and comebacks!
Still, it sort of lived up to its title.
A good passage
[...] The trouble is, like everything else these days, nobody has time any more for you to get better and lose money. It needed to make money. Just like the music business.
