This is a warm and funny book about Layng's adventures and misadventures as he became a major songwriter and a great husband, dad, and friend, Everyone I recommended it to loved the book. The most common comments were "a real page-turner" and a great read. Layng might call it a summer book, or a beach book, but really it is for all times and places. Extraordinary book by an extraordinary guy. Makes a great gift too.
