À propos de ce produit

Product Information

Since he first hitched a ride out of Lubbock, Texas, at the age of sixteen, singer-songwriter and Flatlanders band member Joe Ely has been a road warrior, traveling highways and back roads across America and Europe, playing music for "2 hours of ecstasy" out of "22 hours of misery." To stay sane on the road, Ely keeps a journal, penning verses that sometimes morph into songs, and other times remain "snapshots of what was flying by, just out of reach, so to savor at a later date when the wheels stop rolling, and the gears quit grinding, and the engines shut down." In Bonfire of Roadmaps, Ely takes readers on the road with him. Using verse passages from his road journals and his own drawings, Ely authentically re-creates the experience of a musician's life on tour, from the hard goodbyes at home, to the long hours on the road, to the exhilaration of a great live show, to the exhaustion after weeks of touring. Ely's road trips begin as he rides the rails to Manhattan in 1972 and continue up through recent concert tours with fellow Flatlanders Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Butch Hancock. While acknowledging that "it is not the nature of a gypsy to look in the rearview mirror," Joe Ely nevertheless offers his many fans a revelatory look back over the roads he's traveled and the wisdom he's won from his experiences. And for "those who want to venture beyond the horizon just to see what is there... to those, I hope these accounts will give a glint of inspiration..."

Reviews
"In Bonfire , I can't help but think of the Beat writers--Corso, Ginsberg, Burroughs, and mostly, of course, Kerouac. . . . Bonfire of Roadmaps , at its very best, is about where music comes from and how it comes from. It offers us a glimpse into the heart of music. . . . This book is true." Terry Allen, [The book] compresses the maddening minutiae of touring life into verses of such jarring imagery and black humor, it's a wonder anyone ever decides to become a musician at all. And yet they do. It's a remarkable book. Often enough, Ely makes it plain just how much he and his fearless, possibly foolish compadres are taking their lives into their own hands, or how much their sanity is at stake., "In Bonfire, I can't help but think of the Beat writers-Corso, Ginsberg, Burroughs, and mostly, of course, Kerouac. . . .

    Ridin' shotgun with Joe...great adventures

    Having been a fan of Joe Ely since the 70s,I surmised it had to be the next step in understanding more about the man by reading his book. I was blessed to meet Joe. My first impression was he's a simple good ol' boy from Texas. Not! The deeper I read in his memories of the road and life,it was obvious he is much more than the polite man of few words I encountered. If you are familiar with his music,you will find the thoughts he wrote in his diary turning up as lyrics in his songs. He is not shy about sharing the good times and the down side of life on the road. You will get an insight of his early life and family. It's a wonderful book that allows you to see the world through Joe's eye. My only regret was learning that Joe had written much more but lost his musings in various ways. That's ...
