Textul de pe ultima copertă

Chicago has thrilled music fans for more than forty years with their musical and lyrical brilliance. In this no-holds-barred

memoir, legendary rocker Danny Seraphine shares his

dramatic--and often shocking--experiences as the

supergroup's cofounder and longtime drummer. Whether

you're a diehard Chicago fan or just love a rousing rock-and-roll memoir, Street Player will engage, entertain, and surprise you.

"As the band filed in, they looked like they had seen a ghost.? Their jaws nearly hit the floor.?They probably weren't sure if I would take the time to fly out to Los Angeles and attend the meeting . . . I closed the door and sat back down at the table.?One by one, I looked Walt, Robert, and Lee dead in the eye.?Jimmy turned out to be a no-show. 'Did you ever, in your wildest dreams, imagine it would come to this?' I asked them."
