***ROSS JOHNSON (PANTHER BURNS, ALEX CHILTON, JEFFREY EVANS, etc.) puts it down over 153 pages in his long-awaited memoir. Everything’s here—from bagging groceries for the late Al Jackson, Jr., at the Big Star grocery store to his thoughts on the present-day Memphis scene. In between Ross discusses writing for CREEM in its halcyon days, playing on Like Flies on Sherbert, the brilliance of Lesa Aldridge and Jim Dickinson…and that’s just the beginning. A must have for fans of Make it Stop! and Memphis music. Limited to 200 copies.
