To Be or Not to Be: A Life in Music

By Bill Curbishley

Book Overview

Bill Curbishley is one the last of the great rock band mangers still with us. He is part of a select group of larger-than-life characters - that includes Peter Grant (Led Zeppelin), Steve O'Rourke (Pink Floyd), Malcolm McLaren (Sex Pistols), Allen Klein (The Beatles, The Rolling Stones), Rob Gretton (Joy Division and New Order) - who were nearly as famous as their charges. Curbishley will reveal all about the rock scene from the '70s to the '90s, and what it was like managing The Who and Led Zep.
