review 1: I really enjoyed this book. At first attracted by the cost (free) and the San Diego connection, as I read I found Weissberg funny, knowledgeable and entertaining. After thinking about it, Off my Rocker is not only Weissberg's story, it's also the story of ROCK and how the twin vines of greed and corporatization has slowly been ruining the music and scene that so many of us grew up loving. I'll be recommending this book. A lot.
review 2: As Kenny's daughter, and a character in the memoir, perhaps my review won't carry as much weight as some. Nevertheless, I have to say that I've read the book three times. Some of Kenny's story has been my story and there are parts of the book and our lives together that are less than savory or happy for me. I think the fact that
... more we are all loving and connected and that Kenny can write this story and I can read it and share it with my friends is a testament to Kenny and to his acumen as a writer and as human growing and changing as he moves through the decades of his life. Kenny's progression as a man, a husband, and a father have all been part of my story. I cannot recommend this book enough for those who love music, who have made mistakes, who have dared to dream, who have made teshuvah (return/repentence), who have loved deeply and who have shared honestly. Kenny's story is a testament not only of one man's quest for everlasting music, but also one man's quest to express his unique and important contribution to a life lived fully and how this living has impacted those closest to him and all those whose lives he touched by being who he is. less
