About This Item
Regan Books/ Harper, 1999. First edition. Hardcover. Fine/fine. First edition, first printing. Fine, fresh copy though wth a rem. stripe top edge of text block, in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 285 pp. Profusely illustrated with black and hwite and color photos. Autobiography of Marvin Lee Aday, who as an overweight youngster was unflatteringly nicknamed "Meatloaf" by his alcoholic father. He was drawn to musical theater but no one pegged this kid to be a rock star. As "Meat Loaf" he recorded what was , at the time of this publication, the third best-selling album of all time. Here he pulls no punches as he reveals details of his life that seem to outsiders to be nearly unbelivable: he was at parklan Hospital in Dallas when JFK was declared dead; he once picked up a hitchhijker who turned out to be Charles manson; he got recruited for the musical "Hair" while trying to get a job as a parking attendant; and he starred in a movie that became the biggest cult hit of all time, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show
