About this listen
One of the most tragic stories of the 1990s rock world was that of singer Shannon Hoon and his band, Blind Melon. Despite scoring one of the decade’s most enduring singles and videos, “No Rain”, and a quadruple-platinum hit with their 1992 self-titled debut album (in addition to touring alongside rock’s biggest names), Hoon could not overcome a dangerous drug addiction.
Only two records into a promising career, Hoon was dead from an overdose at the age of 28. A Devil on One Shoulder and an Angel on the Other is the first book to tell the group’s story - culled from more than 50 exclusive interviews (including the surviving band members and those closest to the band).
“I am honored that Greg has painstakingly accounted for what the hell happened during those crazy times. He has summed up all the chaos, jubilation, and paranoia that is Blind Melon.” (Brad Smith, Blind Melon bassist)

A must for Blind Melon and Hoon fans
I've always been inspired by Blind Melon and Shannon Hoon has inspired me throughout the years. I loved hearing this story - even though it made me cry - and we must never forget this world's geniuses. Hoon was one of those.
The performance of the book isn't perfect but it kind of fits. I'm really glad I found this audio book.
