The Boy Who Cried Freebird

01/18/07
.
(PR) Esteemed writer and public radio commentator, Mitch Myers debuts his first book, THE BOY WHO CRIED FREEBIRD: Rock & Roll Fables and Sonic Storytelling (HarperEntertainment) starring a wide-ranging cast of music industry icons including Ozzy Osbourne, Robert Johnson, Aretha Franklin, Phil Spector and many others.

Taking cues from ‘70s era publications like Creem, Crawdaddy and Rolling Stone, THE BOY WHO CRIED FREEBIRD is a freewheeling collection of music-oriented parables, serious artist profiles, and edgy, offbeat essays. Myers incorporates factual reporting, oral storytelling and comedic spritzing—blending his social satire with historical fact in creative, literary fashion. Black Sabbath saving the world from alien infiltration, a classic update on the old American legend of John Henry, Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention freak out – it’s all within the pages of THE BOY WHO CRIED FREEBIRD, just waiting for you to make your own call; fact or fiction?
