SOLVED. Non-fiction eighties rock star released this year. [s]

[Sarah]

I heard about this book advertised in uk on radio 2 either spring or early summer this year. It's by an eighties rock star but not memoirs I don't think, more philosophies on life. Could be American or uk rock star? I remember thinking it would make a great gift for someone I know but I didn't write down any details! Silly me! Please help solve what book it might be.

Maybe Thanks a Lot, Mr. Kibblewhite: My Story by Roger Daltrey? It wasn't released until October, but perhaps they started promoting it early.

Ozzy Osbourne has some books out like this (e.g. Trust Me, I'm Dr. Ozzy: Advice from Rock's Ultimate Survivor), but they were published earlier.

I don't know how popular the band Journey was in the U.K., but Jonathan Cain released a memoir titled "Don't Stop Believin'"

There's this: Detours Do you remember if the rock star was male or female?

[Sarah]

Thanks for the suggestions. It was definitely a male rockstar. It wasn't their memoirs though as far as I can tell, more their philosophies on life. I don't know for sure when it was released but they were talking about it this year so I think 2018, maybe very late 2017 release date.

Sorry about bumping too early!

No worries; it's not "bumping" to supply additional information, either to add a newly remembered fact, or to tell people that their suggestions are not correct.

It’s more of a memoir / autobiography, but Bruce Dickinson put a book out in the last 12 months: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

What Does This Button Do?: An Autobiography for future reference.
