About this listen

Renowned music manager Rikki Stein has spent nearly six decades moving musicians around the world, and this book recounts a lifetime of adventure on the road. Always in the right place at the right time, Rikki was part of the great countercultural moments of the last century, from Woodstock and the Vietnam War Moratorium March to the launch of Glastonbury Festival.

Rikki has toured some of the world’s most iconic musicians and groups, from The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Kinks, The Animals, The Yardbirds, The Moody Blues and the Grateful Dead to managing the Nigerian superstar Fela Kuti and many other iconic artists.

Rikki’s journey is also a spiritual one, forged by his experience of living among the community of the Musicians of Joujouka, Morocco, who remain a key connection in his life to this day.

Full of extraordinary, sometimes hilarious, stories of life on the road, this book recounts the joys, frustrations and surprises of juggling logistics, local politics and the whims of his creative clients to deliver true moments of moving music.

The life and adventures of a man you probably have never heard of but who's work you are very likely to have enjoyed. After being associated with many of the most significant cultural figures and events of the last half century Rikki Stein decides it's time to toot his own horn for a change. A very engaging not to say engrossing tale with what I always enjoy is the added bonus of the author reading it to you himself. A 'must read' for anyone interested in what's been going on not only in the music biz but beyond. I don't doubt they'll be putting up a statue of him in Lagos any day now. Recommended.
