Description

With over 150,000 copies sold worldwide, This Is a Call, is the definitive biography of Dave Grohl, the story of a singular career that includes Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, and Them Crooked Vultures. Based on ten years of original, exclusive interviews with the man himself and conversations with a legion of musical associates such as Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme, Washington DC punk legend Ian MacKaye, Nevermind producer Butch Vig and former bandmates from Mission Impossible, Dain Bramage and Scream, this is Grohl's epic story. He speaks candidly and honestly about Kurt Cobain, the arguments that almost tore Nirvana apart, the feuds that threatened to derail the Foo Fighters's global success, and the dark days that almost caused him to quit music for good.Dave Grohl has emerged as one of the most recognizable and respected musicians in the world. He is the last true hero to emerge from the American underground. This Is a Call vividly recounts this incredible rock 'n' roll journey.
