The true story of one little boy's journey along a fractured path to adulthood, accompanied by the music and people that filled his life. Charting his course through this adoption story, from a respectable childhood that wasn't really his, we journey with the author through years of teenage rebellion, heartbreak and broken dreams. Having made some bad choices, including an attraction to drugs and trouble, we watch as his life continues to unfold and unravel through marriage, fatherhood and divorce.In a search for answers, he traces his natural parents and discovers that his father is a 60's icon.Whilst some parts of the puzzle fall into place, others are lost forever and he finally decides to find his own way of living, peacefully and happily, in spite of it all.With music and topical references from the 60s, the 70s and the 80s; an insider's view of what it was like to be a punk in the UK punk scene; a festival goer at Glastonbury in the days before police and fences, and a host of the parties that spawned rave; this real life story will fill you with a sense of nostalgia and send you running for your record collection.It will also take you on a journey that will make you laugh, cry and be glad that it wasn't yours and serve as a reminder of the fact that that elusive thing we call happiness is within our own reach and that, in the end, we are all responsible for our own destinies.
