  <default_description>One of the greatest moments of College Rock in the 1980s, Let It Be had a huge impact on the fans who fell under its spell. For Colin Meloy, growing up in Montana - a state that's strangely missing from the tour itineraries of almost every band - the album was a lifeline and an inspiration. In this disarming memoir, Meloy lovingly recreates those feverish first years when rock music grips you and never lets go.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[From what I already knew about the 33 1/3 series, I was expecting an analysis of the album from the unique perspective of an industry insider, in this case Colin Meloy of the Decemberists. Instead this is a memoir, detailing the cultural development of a boy largely defined by his taste and pointing...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/21657073">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[It was funny reading this one because it's by Colin Meloy, the singer of The Decemberists, who are often made fun of because of just how proper the grammar in their songs is.<br/><br/>It was funny seeing that translated in to text, because the whole time I could really imagine his voice. <br/><br/>...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/37444176">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This entry in the 33 1/3 series is about The Replacements' 1984 album &quot;Let It Be&quot;, written by Colin Meloy of the Decemberists. Unlike the fantastic &quot;Master of Reality&quot; written by John Darnielle, Meloy tells the true story of his childhood and his relationship with music growing u...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/62810048">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Yeah, this book could have been great..had it had anything at all to do with The Replacements and the album that they recorded. However, since Colin Meloy (the author) is a pretentious ass he wrote the book based around his own life, how he got into good music, yadda yadda yadda, and how Let It Be a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3896940">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Yes, Colin Meloy from the Decemberists wrote a book. About growing up in nerdy and wanting to be a punk in Helena, Montana and finding solace in the music and story of the Replacements of Minnesota. I had to buy it when I discovered it at the store. It's great. This guy can write. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Colin Meloy tells us all about growing up in Bumfuck, Montana with an absentee coolie uncle for a music mentor and no decent concerts in a ten-hour drive. Not so much about the Replacements, which is actually pretty cool. Lots about Colin - a solid coming-of-age memoir.]]></body>
