When boys are asked “What would you like to be when you grow up?” many would most likely say something like &#;footballer&#;, &#;astronaut&#; or &#;rock star&#;. Strangely enough, one of the world’s most naturally talented guitarists, Joe Perry, didn’t dream of being any of these things.

“An excellent read . . . There are times when Perry’s descriptions of Tyler’s interactions with himself and others are laced with near-hatred and disgust . . . but there are also the moments when you realize that if Shakespeare had ever written a play about rock ’n’ roll blood brothers, the two male leads would’ve been Joe Perry and Steven Tyler.” —Guitar World
“Thrilling . . . An intimate narrative . . . This is the raw Aerosmith . . . Perry discusses every detail of the creative process . . .[and] takes you through every developmental stage of his journey in becoming the guitar legend he is today.” —Rebeat magazine
