For Van Zandt, the new book is dubbed “an epic tale of self-discovery by a self-confessed rock and roll disciple.”

โ€œAn inimitable Rock โ€™nโ€™ Roll life told as boldly as it was lived. From the stages of the biggest stadiums in the world to the politically roiling provinces of South Africa, my good friend pursued his Rock โ€™nโ€™ Roll vision with a commitment few have displayed. A must-read for E Street Band fans and Rock fans the world over,” said his pal Springsteen in a press release for the new memoir.

Van Zandt, who is a renowned rocker, also found second and third careers as a political activist and actor, most famously with The Sopranos as Silvio Dante.
