I learned a lot about the band and the story of the songs. I like the breakdown of each song and its back story. Then there was the post release story of the album. I wondered why these songs arent better remembered. I later watched videos from the songs after the book. I still love the album and this book captures why.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is a very cool quick readBy Ronald ValdesThere arent enough books about the Afghan Whigs.

FordGentlemen has been one of my favorite albums for a long; long while and; as Bob Gendron states in the book; its a truly unique masterpiece; unlike anything thats come along before or since.Through interviews with many of the people involved in making both the album Gentlemen and The Afghan Whigs what they were; Bob vividly details the influences that provoked Greg Dulli to bare his soul so unabashedly. Among other interesting facts; were finally given the true story behind the meeting of Greg; John; and Rick; as well as just the right amount of detail about the relationships that inspired the CD.This is a quick; insightful read that any fan of Greg Dullis work (with the Afghan Whigs and other projects) will appreciate. Now Ill just wait for Bob to write the story behind my favorite album of all time; the follow up to Gentlemen; Black Love. But I wont hold my breath.
