Blondie guitarist and group co-founder Chris Stein takes readers/listeners on a nostalgic and wild ride from his humble beginnings as the only child of Jewish parents in Brooklyn in the 1950s, to his rise to rock 'n' roll fame, to the quiet life he leads in the COVID era with his wife and two daughters (one of whom sadly passed away last year from an accidental overdose).

In most ways, this is your run-of-the-mill sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll memoir. Stein does a pretty good job of reflecting on the triumphs and trials that made him who he is today and the friends and enemies he made along the way. Be ready for lots of name dropping; it wouldn't be a memoir otherwise. Stein rambles and goes off topic frequently -- but I figure, this is his story and if it comes off a bit unpolished, that just makes it seem more genuine.

All in all, the audiobook was enjoyable and the narrator reading for Stein was well chosen.
