Product Details
Mike Morsch was originally from Pekin, IL
Everyone has a soundtrack to their life. But how many people get to talk to the artists who make up their soundtrack? "Dancing in My Underwear: The Soundtrack of My Life" is just such a story.
Mike Morsch grew up in the rural Midwest, where his parents introduced him to the music of the 1960s and 70s, including such bands as the Beach Boys, The Association, America, Three Dog Night, The Doobie Brothers as well as iconic singers Elton John, Barry Manilow and Olivia Newton-John.
Then the career newspaperman moved to the East Coast at midlife and some 30 to 40 years later, had the opportunity to interview the artists that he had listened to as a young child up through his teenage years. The result is a joyous, reflective and sometimes flat-out funny memoir by this longtime journalist. At the heart of it all, Mike shares some of the insights he's gleaned from interviews with these paragons of modern music. And you'll hear it in their own voices.
So sit back, fire up the turntable or click on your iPod and let Mike take you on an unforgettable journey through the soundtrack of his life.
