For the most part, this was interesting but a little bloated in that Kenny spent too much time (sometimes up to 3 pages) detailing how a song was written with descriptions of people that while I'm sure are talented and were helpful, meant nothing to me as a casual fan。 Kenny is candid about his personal life and foibles (mainly his mental and emotional health), but there were parts he seemed rather tight-lipped about, but like I've said before in my celebrity memoir reviews, it's his prerogative For the most part, this was interesting but a little bloated in that Kenny spent too much time (sometimes up to 3 pages) detailing how a song was written with descriptions of people that while I'm sure are talented and were helpful, meant nothing to me as a casual fan。 Kenny is candid about his personal life and foibles (mainly his mental and emotional health), but there were parts he seemed rather tight-lipped about, but like I've said before in my celebrity memoir reviews, it's his prerogative。 At the end of the book, he wrote a lovely section about his five children。While reading this, be ready with pen and paper (or if reading the e-book, know how to highlight passages) as you'll want to look up the songs and videos he refers to in the book。 If you're looking for a good memoir by a celebrity songwriter/singer from the same time period, try Richard Marx's Stories to Tell: A Memoir 。Disclaimer: Thanks to the publisher, I read an advance digital copy so it's possible the text in the finished book to be published in June will be changed。 Also, I can't comment on photos since none were included in this edition of the advance copy。 。。。more

Having suffered through Kenny's "Unimaginable Life" book, I had very low expectations for this, but I was pleasantly surprised — "Still Alright" zips along at a really entertaining clip, touching on virtually all aspects of Loggins' private and professional lives that any fan could reasonably expect to find。 He doesn't shy away from embarrassing moments or stories that put him in an unflattering light, and he also doesn't commit the cardinal sin of glossing over the post-platinum portion of his Having suffered through Kenny's "Unimaginable Life" book, I had very low expectations for this, but I was pleasantly surprised — "Still Alright" zips along at a really entertaining clip, touching on virtually all aspects of Loggins' private and professional lives that any fan could reasonably expect to find。 He doesn't shy away from embarrassing moments or stories that put him in an unflattering light, and he also doesn't commit the cardinal sin of glossing over the post-platinum portion of his career。 Well done。 。。。more
