"I love oral histories, especially the musical kind. The 4 brothers Neville have been playing music for 50 years. Their tales of growing up in New Orleans and being out on tour in the 50's and 60's are wild. I didn't realize what crazy junky criminals they all were. Except Art. He was too busy being a funky Meter."
"I bought this book as a gift for my husband..We are from New Orleans and he is a musician and he knows these guys !!!! He could not/would not put this book down !!! He loved it soooooo much and talked about it so much that I had to read it. It was wonderful!! I have purchased 2 more to give as gifts to our friends !!!"
"Great storytelling style as Ritz compiles tales that bounce from brother to brother. One gets a picture of the Nawlins family & neighborhoods that bred & bled these brothers from their 1950's start in music on through their hectic periods of haphazard heroin use, robberies and record industry rip offs, to their height of successes & triumphs in the late 80's and 1990's."
