review 1: I was so disappointed by this book. Anka shares almost nothing of his life other than his love of the Rat Pack and Las Vegas lifestyle. (This is something to be emulated?) I kept reading to the end in hopes that it would get better but it never did. I ought to have quit on page 10. Worse, some of his most caustic stories were related to people he swears are his friends....if that's how he treats friends, one certainly wouldn't want to be his enemy. I lost respect for him with each page.
review 2: This book is more than just about the songs that Paul Anka wrote and sang. He talks about his time on the road with a group of singers who drove around on buses. Not like buses of today but the old buses. The different people he meet who he got along with and who he di... mored not. He also talks alot about old Las Vegas. The Rat Pack and some day being like them. The part of old Vegas was really interesting especally about the Sands Hotel and just the vibe that was going off in that town. There are stories of the mob but light weight but just enough to make it interesting. He does talk about how he writes a song and how some other people he knows write theres. Towards the end of the book I thought he went on a little much between the fight of Trump AND Winn, but over all a good story. less
