What Book Changed Your Life?
I loved this book. Boilen has asked some of my fave musicians a question that I've always wanted answer and not a single answer disappointed me. There's a lot of history, general music history, provided by Boilen in between the interviews which keeps it interesting.
The chapters with Carrie Brownstein, Lucinda Williams and Leon Bridges were my favorites
Going to my dad for Father's Day because he tried to steal my copy. So I got him his own.
Today's Staff Pick Sunday is from our great marketing assistant, Lauren! She's choosing YOUR SONG CHANGED MY LIFE by Bob Boilen.
"Music and literature have always been interchangeable pieces of my life, so I was thrilled when we published Bob Boilen's book. It offered me a vantage point on such personal memories from some of my favorite artists and I can't recommend it enough."
Fun, sometimes moving set of interviews/commentary with famous musicians conducted by Bob Boilen of All Things Considered. Ended with the Fantastic Negrito, the 2014 Tiny Desk Contest winner, who has an amazing personal story.
Some break time reading. This book is awesome so far--I always love reading about music (written by the guy who does the Tiny Desk Concerts on NPR)
