A Blues Life: The memoir of a resolutely obscure manic depressive musician

This is the tale of an artist's struggle with Bipolar Disorder in the course of his life and professional career: his ups and downs, triumphs and failures, and times of pride and joy pitted against those of woe and truly comedic embarrassment. It's a collection of selected episodes from a life lived with all the drugs, booze, sex, addictions, rebellion, fights, arrests, incarcerations, rehab stays, tax problems, and generally anti-social, self-indulgent behaviour attendant to that of a rock star—without the success, fame or funds.
