The Early Days

Summary: The Early Days
Review: This book is a first person account of Terry Wendt's struggles in Nashville as a struggling musician (pedal steel guitarist). It should be read my anyone aspiring to be a musician in Nashville as it covers life on the road as well as touching on studio work. As well as the professional struggles the book also chronicles the battles that the author endured on a personal level and details battles with the "powers that be" in an attempt to get an independently produced song distributed.
After reading the book (2 1/2 hours) I was emotionally drained and glad that I had chosen a different path.

Summary: History and Information
Review: This book is loaded with history and information about the music business. I was in awe over the reference to many country (well known) entertainers I actually had heard of that the author has been involved with. I think this is very good for reference for musicians in general with attention paid to detail. Even as a lead guitarist in a rock and roll band I learned a lot about the music business in general. I think everyone will like it who reads it. You feel a part of the story too!

Summary: Very cool
Review: This is one awsome book! From the very first page to the very last, I was mesmorized. It's the kind of book that I read and read and not get tired of. I didn't want it to end. The author of this book has done an incredible job of opening up his whole life to all, and telling the story as it happened then, and how it is still ongoing. He unselfishly wears his heart on his sleeve as well as gives you the scoop on the music biz. It's funny, witty, serious, educational, spiritual and all that I love a book to be. The photographs are wonderful. I feel as though I vicariously lived it all through the author. His life is now an open book. Read it and then write about it as well. Congratulations to the author, his lovely wife and children.

Thanks Terry, Your book is a big help for me, for my radio shows.
