My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Excellent reading the 2nd time through. I had forgotten how many big things happened in this last book written exclusively by Robert Jordan before his passing. Now to double back and read New Spring, which i should have read immediately before this one. Oops!

35 years since my first Bruce show!!!

Great memories yesterday when this popped up in my e-mail. 35 years since my first Bruce show!!! It’s been quite a journey thru the years since discovering Bruce on late night rock radio back in 78 with the release of Darkness. Bruce wrote the soundtrack of my life ❤️🎸🎶❤️ Bruuuuuce‼️‼️

an unexpected delight

Renegades: Born in the USARenegades: Born in the USA by Barack Obama
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was an unexpected delight. I had not listened to the podcast series on Spotify of this conversation between Bruce and President Obama. But given that I love Bruce (whose music has been the soundtrack of my life) and I respect and admire Barack Obama, I should not be surprised that this collection is so good. This book is a collection of the transcripts of the heartfelt and thoughtful conversations between these two giants on many topics important to individuals and to our nation. The topics included friendship, history, music, grace and forgiveness, race, economics and values, ghost of our individual and collective past, love, and hope for the future. Generously sprinkled within this dialog are hundreds of wonderful photos from the lives of these two men. It is a wonderful package, and certainly a must-read to anyone who has heard the podcast conversations or who love and admire these men. I really enjoyed this collection, and I'm now going back to listen to the conversations in the audio format of the podcast. Great book.
