Description
'A tale of rock'n'roll excess par excellence' Record Collector Pete Way has lived a life so outrageous, shocking and full of incident that rock wild man - and his regular partner-in-crime - Ozzy Osbourne once said, 'They call me a madman but compared to Pete Way, I'm out of my league.' As founding member, songwriter and bassist of one of Britain's most venerated hard-rock bands, UFO, Way scaled the heights of arena-rock success in the US and around the world during the '70s and '80s - and inspired such acolytes as Steve Harris of Iron Maiden and Nikki Sixx of Mötley Crüe. He also left behind him a trail of carnage and self-destruction. A heroin addict for more than ten years, Way blew millions on drugs and debauchery. The human cost of his rampaging runs to six marriages, four divorces, a pair of estranged daughters and two dead ex-wives. More recently, he has fought a successful battle against cancer. A Fast Ride out of Here is Pete Way's own no-holds-barred account of his rock'n'roll life. By turns hilarious, harrowing and heart-breaking, it is the extraordinary tale of one of rock's great survivors.
