Summary
THE FOLLOW UP MEMOIR TO SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, BUNNYMAN
Scenic Wye Valley isn't the typical place for a rock story to begin, but when Echo & the Bunnymen hit the studio to record their ground-breaking debut album, Crocodiles, it was anything but ordinary. The album was the making of the band - cultivating a cult following which would soon evolve into staggering mainstream success. Their lives would never be the same again.
In Echoes, legendary guitarist and founding member of Echo & the Bunnymen, Will Sergeant, recounts the band's whirlwind rise to stardom with his trademark wryness and intelligence. Sharing never-before-told anecdotes - including the heady Rockfield Studio sessions and touring across the US, playing sold-out shows at Whisky a Go Go and experiencing the iconic New York club scene from dusk 'til dawn - and accompanied by snapshots of the cultural, social and political scene at the time, this is a memoir to remember.
The music at the beginning and end of this audiobook is taken from Dragonflies, an original piece written and performed by Will Sergeant

Absolutely Brilliant, AGAIN!
Witty as the first one, can't wait for the next installment as this only takes you to 1982. I even told my Mrs to give it a go and she doesn't do audiobooks. Living not far from Melling ourselves it's a little easier for us to understand the lingo and the places. But Will gives you a run down of Scouse when needed.

Will has done it again
Great insight again into a great band. More social commentaries and music memoirs that I’m enjoying Will’s reading of every night. Looking forward to next one already.

Flippin' brilliant.
2nd but not final part of Will's excellent biography and it is an absolute blast. Not only is the story with its anecdotes, and bits of background info a bunnymen's fan's dream but the way in which Will delivers his book feels very personal. As you listen, you are becoming acquainted.
I really look forward to the next instalment where we become friends.

Great insight into Echo & The Bunnymen
At 18 my first real gig was Echo & The Bunnymen, 1984 Ocean Rain Tour, played the album to death!
A masterpiece!
