"Must have for Chili fans"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great book and wonderfully written. A great collection of photos, insight to some of their most popular tracks and an incredible timeline to Anthonys rough road to drug addiction, recovery and the setbacks along the way. Truly great read that's just as interesting the second or third time over.

"Scar Tissue byt Anthony Kiedis from The Red Hot Chilli Peppers"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Ive read a lot of books over the years, but nothing like this. It had me addicted right from the start! I couldnt put it down. The most amazing story, and its so well written. The best book I have ever read!

"Boring!"
1 stars"

I love RHCP, but this book was seriously boring. It seems that Anthony lives in a cycle of women, drugs, getting clean. Repeat. Many times. It actually put me off the band.

Description

In SCAR TISSUE Anthony Kiedis, charismatic and highly articulate frontman of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, recounts his remarkable life story, and the history of the band itself. Raised in the Midwest, he moved to LA aged eleven to live with his father Blackie, purveyor of pills, pot, and cocaine to the Hollywood elite. After a brief child-acting career, Kiedis dropped out of U.C.L.A. and plunged headfirst into the demimonde of the L.A. underground music scene. He formed the band with three schoolfriends - and found his life's purpose. Crisscrossing the country, the Chili Peppers were musical innovators and influenced a whole generation of musicians. But there's a price to pay for both success and excess and in SCAR TISSUE, Kiedis writes candidly of the overdose death of his soul mate and band mate, Hillel Slovak, and his own ongoing struggle with an addiction to drugs. SCAR TISSUE far transcends the typical rock biography, because Anthony Kiedis is anything but a typical rock star. It is instead a compelling story of dedication and debauchery, of intrigue and integrity, of recklessness and redemption.
