WHEN WE WERE THE BOYS: COMING OF AGE ON ROD STEWART’S OUT OF ORDER TOUR

Book ID/图书代码： 07633014B75143

English Summary/英文概要： This book, for your clients, is a backstage pass to the ups, downs, and all-out craziness of growing up rock—deep discussions with Rod Stewart, jamming with legends like Mick Jagger and Simon LeBon of Duran Duran, gaining groupies, and striking out solo. Stevie Salas was one of many boys coming of age in the 1980s—when the American dream was music superstardom. As lead guitarist for a San Diego band, Salas played backyard parties and school dances, and even scored the music for cult classic Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. When he auditioned for Rod Stewart—where he was the youngest band member by a decade—Salas’s career truly hit a turning point.

Salas pulls no punches to describe the initial skepticism and hazing he faced as the youngest member of Stewart’s band, the night he stood up for himself on the tour plane, and the pivotal heart-to-heart talk with Stewart that helped turn around the Out of Order Tour. Yet they became a band of brothers and formed a camaraderie they share to this day. When We Were the Boys revolves around the year Salas began as a musical prodigy and finished as a seasoned rock and roll veteran—more mature as a man and musician.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 对于你的客户来说，这本书是了解不断兴起的摇滚起起落落以及所有的疯狂的“后门捷径”——和洛•史都华的深度讨论、干扰Duran Duran的传奇米克•贾格尔和西蒙•乐邦、获得吉他手、表演独奏等。史蒂夫•萨拉斯是1980年代来临时的众多男孩之一，那时美国梦就是音乐超级明星。作为一支圣地亚哥乐队的主吉他手，萨拉斯为后院聚会和学校舞会表演，甚至为经典电影《比尔和泰得探险记》配乐。当他为洛•史都华配乐时——他小了10岁而成为乐队最年轻的成员——他的职业生涯真正遇到转折点。

萨拉斯轻松描述他作为乐队最年轻成员面临的疑惑和苦恼，在巡演飞机上他代表自己的那个晚上，和史都华的交心的关键对话，帮助“无序”巡演发生转折。然而，他们变成了兄弟并且友谊长存至今。《当我们是男孩时》回顾了萨拉斯开始成为一个音乐奇迹，结束了作为一个摇滚老兵的时代，他作为一个人和一个音乐家更加成熟了。(LNL)
