''The most wonderful storyteller'' Sarah Winman ''Funny, humane, left-field... I can never wait to read whatever she writes next'' Patrick Gale The funny, touching, fascinating memoir of a rural childhood surrounded by rock stars, for fans of Nina Stibbe. Rockfield Studios is a place of legend, the recording location of some of the most famous rock albums of all time. With her mother installed as the resident Cordon Bleu chef, Tiffany Murray grew up around rock stars including Black Sabbath, Queen, Motorhead, Rush, David Bowie, and The Damned. My Family and Other Rock Stars reveals how these music legends lived day-to-day: whether it was David Bowie refusing a salmon buffet, or Freddie Mercury''s touching love for a Great Dane. For Tiffany, they were the background to a whirlwind childhood of freedom, adventure and continuous change. The one constant throughout is the extraordinary relationship between Tiffany and her mother, as they build an unconventional family around them in the most unlikely of locations.
