Looking To Get Lost: Adventures In Music And Writing

by Peter Guralnick

Recommended by

"In the introduction to this collection of profiles from throughout his long and venerable career (plus some new ones), much-loved American roots music chronicler Peter Guralnick plays that old game of imagining his favorite dinner party, composed of the subjects of his book. And what a gathering! Guralnick writes with deep empathy and respect about legends like Johnny Cash and Willie Dixon, lesser-known key figures like bluesman Lonnie Mack and music-adjacent kindred spirits like the novelist Lee Smith. This book will make you feel nostalgic for up-close conversations as Guralnick gently reaches the heart and soul of his subjects."
