Rocks is the extremely interesting musical memoir of Joe Perry from Aerosmith. I won't claim to be the biggest Aerosmith fan - although I can name enough of their songs to not feel like a total fraud - but I found their musical journey completely fascinating.

Perry discusses the influences on his music, the impact of his family and also the choices that helped and hindered the band at certain pivotal points in time.

One of the most fascinating elements of the memoir is the relationship between Joe Perry and Steve Tyler - where musical direction and ego often clashed. Rocks really is a must read for anyone interested in the rock music history.

Rocks by Joe Perry is available now.
