A book of dad advice that doesn't take itself too seriously. It is the perfect gift for a new dad or dad to be who probably needs a fun break from the serious literature and how-to books that accompanies most pregnancies these days.

When I first picked up this book, I was really excited to read it. The creative inspiration behind any artistic production is always an interesting topic because it places the art in a historical and biographical context that often explains much of its meaning to the creator. Yet while some of the songs described here are very interesting stories, I found that most of the songs and bands were ones that I didn't know or didn't care about, so the back story was completely lost.

Besides needing an upgrade in terms of song/band-choice, the biggest disappointment was the poor quality of writing. The linguistic style was that of a hack journalist when it could/should havea been the quality of Rolling Stone magazine. The book would have greatly benefited from a more conversational tone, rather than an academically removed tone, because the book is basically filled with gossip, rumours, and personal intrigues.… (més)

This book is pretty up to date, from the beginning to Craig’s second turn as Bond. I was a Bond fan at a young age, ordering the books from small mom and pop bookstores looooooong before Amazon existed!
I grew up during Roger Moore’s time. The villain Jaws was my favorite! And I owned the “For Your Eyes Only” poster on page 55! I also own several of the die-cast toy cars (and a mini space shuttle!)! Somewhere, I have the 007 Dark Horse comic books. And I remember when I was in high school and how crazy excited I was that they were filming “A View to a Kill” in San Francisco, not a half hour from my home town!
This book is 5 stars for how it made me feel! I forgot what a Bond nerd I was, and still am! Now I'm gonna go play with my Aston Martin toy car, complete with ejecting villain!

Pretty lame. Some bits of it were fun, but much of it was dated content and some of it was even wrong.
