About this listen
'Sometimes fate deals up a wild card. There's a lot to be said for one of these wild cards and from what I've learned over the fifty or so years of our friendship, Chris is a card from the unexpected deck' - from the foreword by Debbie Harry
Musician, photographer, storyteller, and longtime partner to Debbie Harry, Chris Stein defined the sound of an era, catapulting the icon band Blondie to #1 and selling over 20 million copies of Parallel Lines.
In this no-holds-barred autobiography, Stein reveals himself-this time not in songwriting or photography, which he's previously been known for, but in words. From a Brooklyn boyhood, a move across the river to the gritty and fecund East Village in the late 1970s allowed Stein to tap the explosive creativity that defined the era in the city. It was a time when David Bowie and the Ramones were also making music, when Andy Warhol was still alive and promoting Jean-Michel Basquiat's work, when cool was defined not by where you came from but by what you could contribute to culture.
UNDER A ROCK is a plunge into that vanished time period, and into the moments that turned the fresh sound and new look of punk and new wave into a giant artistic and commercial sensation. Stein takes us there in this revelatory, propulsive, distinctive memoir.©2024 Chris Stein (P)2024 Hachette Audio UK

A must for Blondie fans and music historians
We all knew Blondie made great music at the time (and still do!) but we didn't know how significant they would be to music history.
Chris Stein gives us a driver's seat view of the ride that began as starting a band with an extraordinary lead singer that became the phenomenon it is today.
There are many wonderful moments in this cabinet of curiosities that is Stein's life, with New York city featuring as a support character.
The narrator is exceptional (I don't say this lightly - I have a VERY big Audible collection).
