Wheres My Guitar?: An Inside Story of British Rock and Roll

A page turnerand then some! Chris Evans An absorbing memoir. Classic Rock Magazine A very enjoyable rock-n-roll memoir that is not just for fans, but for anyone interested in this classic era of the British rock scene The Afterword A fascinating insight into the golden-age of 1970s and 80s rock and roll told through the eyes of music legend Bernie Marsden and, most notably, his role in establishing one of the worlds most famous rock bands of all time Whitesnake. A compelling journey in the company of a masterful (and mercifully ego-free) musician. I saved it like a cherished slab of vinyl. Ian Rankin Touring with AC/DC. Befriending The Beatles. Writing one of the worlds most iconic rock songs. This is the story of a young boy from a small town who dreamt of one day playing the guitar for a living and ended up a rock n roll legend. It follows Bernie Marsdens astonishing career in the industry from tours in Cold War Germany and Francos Spain, to meeting and befriending George Harrison and touring Europe with AC/DC. Its a story of hard graft, of life on the road, of meeting and playing with your heroes, of writing iconic rock songs most notably the multi-million selling hit Here I Go Again and of being in one of the biggest rock bands of all time. At age 30, Bernie left Whitesnake due to serious conflict with his management, something he explores in this memoir for the very first time. Packed with stories and encounters with the likes of Ringo Starr, Elton John, Cozy Powell, Ozzy Osborne, B.B. King and Jon Lord, this is not just a remarkable look into the highs and lows of being a true music legend, but an intimate account of the revolutionary impact rock and roll music has offered to the world.
