Don't Shoot the Guitar Man is the memoir of legendary guitarist Lonnie Mack, a pioneer of rock and roll and blues who has played with everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Muddy Waters. Mack's story is a fascinating and inspiring tale of a man who followed his dream and achieved success against all odds.
Mack was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1941. He started playing guitar at the age of six, and by the time he was a teenager, he was playing in local bands. In 1963, Mack released his debut album, The Wham of that Memphis Man, which featured his signature song, "Memphis." The album was a critical and commercial success, and it established Mack as one of the most promising young guitarists in the country.
Over the next few years, Mack released a series of successful albums, including "Glad I'm in Your Company" (1965),"Whatever's Right" (1966),and "Lonnie Mack Is Back" (1969). He also toured extensively, playing with some of the biggest names in rock and roll, including the Rolling Stones, the Grateful Dead, and Bob Dylan.
In the early 1970s, Mack's career began to decline. He struggled with drug addiction and personal problems, and his music sales began to dwindle. However, he continued to play and record, and in recent years, he has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity.
Don't Shoot the Guitar Man is a candid and revealing account of Mack's life and career. He writes about his early days in Cincinnati, his struggles with addiction, and his triumphs and disappointments in the music business. Mack also shares his thoughts on the state of the music industry and the future of rock and roll.
