Sinossi
Paul Stanley - famoso per essere uno dei fondatori, nonché chitarrista e cantante dei Kiss - rivela per la prima volta sia i suoi più grandi successi come musicista e come uomo, che i momenti più bui e drammatici che ha dovuto affrontare nella propria vita. La sua autobiografia mescola racconti e confidenze della vita privata alle storie vissute insieme ai Kiss, che sapranno sorprendere anche i fan più navigati. Paul ci riporta sino alla propria infanzia e adolescenza negli anni '50 e '60, un periodo vissuto in maniera particolarmente dolorosa per via della malformazione all'orecchio che lo ha fatto crescere parzialmente sordo. Ma anziché demoralizzarlo, questa condizione lo ha spronato a mettercela tutta per avere successo nel più inaspettato dei campi: la musica. Lo Starchild ci accompagna poi lungo la serie di circostanze che ha portato alla nascita e al successo dei Kiss, passando per i rapporti personali che hanno segnato la sua vita e per gli scontri e i litigi che hanno spesso caratterizzato le dinamiche interne della band nei suoi oltre quarant'anni di attività. Un racconto onesto, schietto e senza filtri, che non risparmia nessuno - nemmeno lo stesso Paul.

This is by far the greatest KISS Book. And there are a lot of KISS Books. I have read every single one there is. The reason that this is the best KISS book is because of the mystery of Paul Stanley. Rock 'n roll has lost its mystery. Everything every rock star does is known on the Internet and TMZ e Leggi tutto

I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this book. I laughed out loud a few times. Paul Stanley's view on family, life, his career was admirable.
This is a great book all about the life inside KISS. Paul does not pull any punches and tells it like it was. He seemed to be the hardest working man in the band and probably in Rock itself. Paul does a great job at explaining the relationships betwene the band members as well as there proclivities
I was thrilled when I learned that my fave KISS member Mr. Paul Stanley had written his autobiography. I mean...just look at him. At 60 something, he's still hot! I learned a lot of things while reading this book. The most important thing I learned is that Paul Stanley was the "Paul McCartney of KISS Leggi tutto
First, let me be upfront about the fact that I was a KISS freak growing up. At age 15, they were the first rock concert I had gone to. It was their 1977 tour and absolutely spectacular. But KISS was much more than pyrotechnics and blood spitting and smoking guitars. They frigging ROCKED. To this day I Leggi tutto
Coming from a guy who's well-known for spitting out cliched answers to interview questions, I had really low expectations from this autobiography. The three preceding books by the original members of KISS had been variable forums for self-serving name-dropping (Gene Simmons),whiny accounts of how ev Leggi tutto
I am quite honestly shocked at the reviews this book is receiving. I WILL say that Paul has worked harder than all the original 4 put together. I found it very disappointing that Paul felt the need to put Peter and Ace down throughout the entire book, not to mention Gene. The odd comment would suffi Leggi tutto
