About this deal

Brian has broken the mold. One of the best autobiographies I've ever read! His writing is compelling and hilarious (no ghostwriter here, he wrote it in longhand), and it's a gold mine of windows into his pre-fame life, all written so sincerely. Brian has lived many lives within his lifetime, but somehow he's kept his feet on the ground, never losing touch with his roots. Growing up in Dunston, Newcastle after the Second World War, Brian Johnson lived a quiet childhood. Then he saw Little Richard on the BBC and it hit him instantly: he was going to be a singer.

SHARP и няколко пиратски касети, записани нелегално кой знае в коя кухня или хол на някой панелен блок. Помня една от тези касети - беше марка TDK и имаше грозен надпис със син химикал на обложката - AC/DC. От страна „А“ пишеше "Bon", а от страна „Б“ - "Brian". I've been able to do some not very good watercolour pantings and some cooking which has turned out to be surprisingly edible. Remembering the world was not long out of the second world war when young Brian was born so like many stories of the day, Brian's childhood was a fairly dismal and depressing one. A real show of what it is like to never give up and follow your dreams. Johnson is known for his distinctive singing voice and strong Geordie accent. In July 2014, he was awarded an honorary degree of Doctor of Music by Northumbria University in the city of Newcastle in recognition of his significant contribution to the music industry.The son of a British army sergeant-major and Italian mother, Brian grew up in Dunston, Tyne and Wear, as it emerged from the shadow of the Second World War. Then he saw Little Richard on the BBC and it changed the course of his life. It wasn't me. I didn't do it. And I'll never do it again!' says Brian Johnson of The Lives of Brian . . . Warm, vivid, evocative, life-affirming and often laugh-out-loud funny, The Lives of Brian tells the story of one of our most well-loved performers in his own inimitable words.

It’s been a rollercoaster of a life, throughout which Brian’s kept his feet firmly on the ground, never losing touch with his roots.There is quite a lot of insight about his time in the band Geordie. This is the band that he was singing out the front of when Bon Scott and Angus Young first saw him and some surprising stories about his own time in the military. First revealed in April 2021, Johnson's memoirs were originally slated for release on October 21, 2021: no explanation has been given for the delay. This is Brian's story growing up in Newcastle, Northern England. He talks about his family, his Father's efforts in the war, leaving school and searching for employment, first girlfriends, and a myriad of dead-end bands that he formed or joined in his early years. Lives of Brian”, уважението към феновете и към паметта на Бон Скот, разочарованието и болката, които надничат зад някои от случките като подпийнало джорди, което се опитва да се скрие зад полупразната си халба с Newcastle Brown Ale. It's been a rollercoaster of a life, throughout which Brian's kept his feet firmly on the ground, never losing touch with his roots.
