Reviews
Richard was a dear friend, a great singer and songwriter, and a key member of the greatest rock band that ever played., It's hard to imagine American musicin the sixties and seventies without The Band, even though they neverquite got the attention and sales they deserved. Yet thecountry/folk/blues end of rock would not have existed without them. Andthough other band members got more attention, Richard Manuel's voice andclassic blues piano were at the very core of that music. Which is whyStephen Lewis' Richard Manuel deserves serious attention. It fills amajor gap in our understanding., ...the book has made his haunting voice come to life, succeeding in the most difficult of tasks--highlighting the heartbreak of what might have seemed a foregone conclusion., I love this book! Like a slow blues,Stephen T. Lewis takes you through every heartbreak, the beer-soakedfloors of juke joints and the sweat-stained clothes from long hours onstage, Richard Manuel's entire life and the Dickensian cast ofcharacters he intersected with. His musical descriptions of the bandsRichard played with carry the ring of truth. The stories are endless. Icould not give the book a rest. Absolutely brilliant!, Having spent many a long night with Richard, I believe this book beautifully captures the essence of the brilliant musician to an extraordinary detail--to the point where you can actually hear the words. 'He lived, he breathed, he died with his music.'

Synopsis
For the first time--in an official biography endorsed by his family--the Band's legendary Richard Manuel's compositions and performances are analyzed with expert commentary while shining a light on his contributions to all of his bands--and on the undeniable impact he had on rock music. Richard Manuel was a fearless original.

For the first time, Manuel's compositions and performances are critiqued with expert commentary--alongside new interviews with family, friends, and fellow musicians, including Eric Clapton and Van Morrison. The story traces Manuel's journey from Stratford, Ontario, to Woodstock, New York, and beyond, beginning with his first band, the Revols, then singing the blues with Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and Garth Hudson in the Hawks, the group that would later become the Band. Manuel's influence was profound, his distinctive vocals infusing songs with emotion and depth. His songwriting flourished in classics like "Tears of Rage," cowritten with Dylan, and "We Can Talk." His keyboard work added a lovable funkiness to the Band's sound, blending elements of rock, folk, country, and blues into what would become the genesis of Americana. Despite the Band's successes, Manuel struggled with personal demons, battling addiction and inner turmoil. Looking beyond his human frailty, this book celebrates Richard Manuel's immeasurable contributions to music, ensuring that memories of his voice and artistry endure., Sweetly soulful and creatively multifaceted, Richard Manuel of the Band left an indelible mark on rock history. From pivotal moments like Bob Dylan's controversial move to electric music to Woodstock and the Last Waltz, Manuel's journey unfolds in this first-ever biography.

From his role in forming the Band to his iconic vocals and songwriting, Manuel's influence resonates deeply. Classics like "Tears of Rage" and "I Shall Be Released" showcase his lyrical prowess and emotional depth. Despite success, Manuel battled personal demons, succumbing tragically in 1986. His legacy lives on, inspiring generations of musicians and fans. This book celebrates Manuel's immeasurable contributions to music, ensuring his soulful voice and profound artistry endure in the annals of rock., For the first time, the Band's legendary Richard Manuel's compositions and performances are analyzed with expert commentary while shining a light on his contributions to all of his bands--and on the undeniable impact he had on rock music.
