Summary of Tommy James's Me, the Mob, and the Music

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born Thomas Gregory on April 29, 1947, in Dayton, Ohio. I had an odd assortment of music, from Little Golden Records for kids to pop hits on the radio. I had collected everything from Sammy Kaye to Yosemite Sam. #2 I had a radio, record player, and record collection. I was already a music lover, and the radio, my ukulele, and record player were my confidants.
I loved exploring my new home, which was a hotel. I found the bar downstairs from the lobby, and I loved it. #3 I had a strange and dysfunctional arrangement with my family, but I made the best of it. I loved living in a hotel, and I spent my allowance on vinyl records. I was able to make friends in fourth grade, and I knew that this was what I wanted to be: a rock star. #4 In 1956, a greasy-haired kid playing a guitar was the ultimate expression of rebellion.
But a greasy-haired kid playing an acoustic guitar was the worst. It was downright criminal behavior. An electric guitar was thought of as a more tasteful, stylized instrument.
