Produktinformation
I wanted to make music, and in this sense my dreams were being realised. The time spent on stage was becoming more fun ... but what to do with the time in between? Those would turn out to be the challenging times. A shy only child, Nigel John Taylor wasn't an obvious candidate for pop stardom. But when he ditched his first name and picked up a bass guitar, everything changed. Duran Duran were an immediate, global success story, creating some of the greatest and best-loved songs of our time. It's been a ride - and for John in particular, the ride has been wild, thrilling... and dangerous. In his frank, compelling autobiography, John recounts the highs - hanging out with icons like Bowie, Warhol and even James Bond; dating Vogue models and driving fast cars - all the while playing hard with the band he loved. But he faced tough battles ahead - troubles that brought him to the brink of self-destruction. Told with humour, honesty and hard-earned wisdom, In the Pleasure Groove is a fascinating portrait of a man who danced into the fire... and came through the other side. 'Wonderfully evocative ... an engaging read written with style, insight and, above all, charm' Daily Express 'Amusing, self-deprecating ... he is a likeable and droll narrator of his life story, generous to bandmates, loyal to loved ones and unfailingly hard on himself' Daily MailProduktkennzeichnungen
