Story
Rock god. Justice fighter. Rabble-rouser. Ivy Leaguer. An American renegade and fearless truth teller. Rage Against the Machine’s guitar virtuoso, Tom Morello, is many things, but perhaps he himself sums it up best: a one man revolution. For the first time ever, hear Morello fuse the deeply personal with the political in a rapturous, badass, one-man show that skillfully balances soul-bearing stories with spellbinding guitar fury. This is Tom Morello at Minetta Lane Theatre: Speaking Truth to Power Through Stories and Song.

Story
I’ve been in this life for 50 years, been trying to work out its riddle for 42, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last 35. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me.

Story
It took me a lifetime to have the courage and the clarity to write my memoir. I want to tell the story of the moments - the ups and downs, the triumphs and traumas, the debacles and the dreams - that contributed to the person I am today. This book is composed of my memories, my mishaps, my struggles, my survival, and my songs. Unfiltered. I went deep into my childhood and gave the scared little girl inside of me a big voice. I let the abandoned and ambitious adolescent have her say, and the betrayed and triumphant woman I became tell her side.

Story
Imagine a 1980s world of sumptuous hotel rooms, restaurants, New York City penthouses, and the powerful men who move easily between these pinnacles of luxury. They are music producers, rock stars, writers, and restaurateurs. They are household names like Billy Joel, Art Garfunkel, Eric Clapton, and Sting. And yet, each man has an entire aspect to his life that he doesn’t talk about publicly—his depression, his rocky marriage, his feelings of shame and failure, his private loss of faith. And now: The phone rings. Imagine the woman who has each of these men at her beck and call.

Story
Let Love Rule is a work of deep reflection. Lenny Kravitz looks back at his life with candor, self-scrutiny, and humor. Let Love Rule covers a vast canvas stretching from Manhattan’s Upper East Side, Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant, Los Angeles’ Baldwin Hills, Beverly Hills, and finally to France, England, and Germany. It’s the story of a wildly creative kid who, despite tough struggles at school and extreme tension at home, finds salvation in music. We see him grow as a musician and ultimately a master songwriter, producer, and performer.

Brandi Carlile was born into a musically gifted, impoverished family on the outskirts of Seattle and grew up in a constant state of change, moving from house to house, trailer to trailer, 14 times in as many years. Though imperfect in every way, her dysfunctional childhood was as beautiful as it was strange, and as nurturing as it was difficult. At the age of five, Brandi contracted bacterial meningitis, which almost took her life, leaving an indelible mark on her formative years and altering her journey into young adulthood.

Good listen
I forgot how much I love Sheryl Crow. Growing up, I really related to her music. I felt the melancholy she talks about. Probably why I loved her music. It’s nice to hear a little about her story. It gives me hope and faith that there are better days to come and not everything has to be figured out right now. Thank you Sheryl for sharing your story.

Love Love Love- Go, Audible!
This is a brilliant idea. Sheryl Crow is a brilliant artist. Perfect combo. Bravo.
I listen to something almost all day, every day at work. I get podcasts elsewhere and come to Audible for audiobooks. That’s my habit. Today I finished an audiobook and all the pods were depressing news. I started to listen to music instead but came back to Audible and saw this short piece. I was immediately entranced with the combination of great music and an interesting history.
I’m not sure how common these productions are but I’ll listen to as many as you can produce. I love this idea. Thank you.

Love It
To all of those that came up with this idea ... Incredible! As Sheryl says, the world is different, and that includes how we receive music and its poets. Everything I want is in this format! The who, what, when, where, and how in a little over 60 minutes.
At 68, I didn't know a lot about Sheryl Crow. Snatches of lyrics I recognized ... Appearances on Oprah ... Lance Armstrong ... Today, I know who and what and how it happened. I see the thread that connects this artist to those I admire and hold dear for their contribution to my life. And I am heartened that the thread continues to produce voices that tell our stories. Thanks, I will be bingeing the unknown (to me) works of this artist to hear what else I missed of her journey, and I do it with her personal roadmap of reasons, motivations, and inspirations that make sense of the musical story she's destined to tell.

Love Sheryl’s Authentic Sharing
I’m truly inspired and appreciate the inside look at a bold and courageous woman’s career. Beginning with a naive moxie, and not ending, but continuing with wisdom and an inner strength that always has been the foundation of Sheryl’s existence. Thank you, Sheryl Crow, for sharing your story. Keep singing sister—the world obviously loves your voice.

Genuine person
Sheryl Crow is my favorite female vocalist. Her style, to me, is lyrical storytelling from her life experiences. What makes this particular program so special is her singing. There are no backup singers or special effects, but mostly Sheryl and her guitar. I especially liked this version of All I Wanna Do and Redemption Day. Just her beautiful voice and you.

The journey of life and seizing the moment.
From "crashing" a Michael Jackson audition, leading to the need for a passport and enjoying the rides all night at Disneyland Paris.
The depression generated as a consequence of sexual harassment, powerfully articulated in What I Can Do For You and The Na-Na Song.
Beautifully articulates the journey of her life, and the acknowledgment that she remains a work in progress.
Guided by the necessity to both work hard and be a good person, and will now release contemporary songs with a pertinent message and no longer rely on the album format, in this playlist dominated environment.
Raw, honest and powerful, with some fabulous new arrangements of some of the classics from a four decade career.
Offers an incredible insight into a phenomenal talent, who is so real and ordinary and says it like it is.
