Between a Heart and a Rock Place

Between a Heart and a Rock Place: A Memoir | Pat Benatar

pick

When this classically trained singer teamed up with this guitarist & future husband, who knew they would rule the 80s & create an explosion in rock music with 4 Grammys, 15 top hits & vocals that knocked you off your feet! Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo truly ROCK! 40+ years later, they‘re still touring! Pat certainly paved the way for female rockers, standing strong in a misogynistic industry. She was also the first female artist played on MTV!👇🏻

MemoirsForMe I loved how Pat‘s iconic look and sleek style was inspired by a Halloween costume she cooked up based on a cheesy ‘50s Sci-fi movie! Such a great read! #BookSpin @TheAromaofBooks 7mo

@WanderingBookaneer this will all come in handy Tuesday for a picnic plan! I am taking my daughter, her girlfriend, and a best friend to see Pat Benetar, Melissa Etheridge and Liz Phair at the wolf trap. I can‘t wait to use it all! #summersantagoespostal #summersolsticegoespostal

Between a Heart and a Rock Place: A Memoir | Pat Benatar

so-so

Pat Benatar is one of my absolute favorite artists and I was so excited to read this book. I was somewhat disappointed as I felt she spent most of the book complaining about her record labels, etc. I get it must have been really hard as a female rocker back then but c'mon. Her love story with Neil is so great, tho.

celtichik Have you seen mtv's Behind the Music Pat Benatar episode? 8y

Bostonmomx2 I'm sure I have... I can't say for sure right now but I'd be surprised if I missed it ? I never turn on those "music" channels anymore but I may have to do a search periodically and see if I can catch it. 8y

celtichik Or check youtube :) 8y

Bostonmomx2 @celtichik oh good call lol I never even think of youtube 👍 8y

Cinfhen I FINALY got a chance to see her perform live in concert this summer...and she was AWFUL 😡😫she had ZERO energy, refused to interact with the audience and left the stage before the hour was over. So disappointing💔Her husband shared the stage with her and he was actually adorable and engaging! 8y

Bostonmomx2 @Cinfhen that's really too bad. I've seen her 4 times starting in around 88 and most recently in 07. She/they were great all 4 times. She isn't the most energetic performer but at the last show you could tell her vocals weren't as strong. Makes me sad 😕 8y
