Los Angeles, 1988. In a summer of hedonism, everyone wants their share.On Sunset Strip, undiscovered bands dream of emulating their heroes: M tley Cr e, Van Halen, Poison and all the other chancers who got lucky... Above them in the canyons, the city s privileged youth already live like rock stars. Drifting between these separate worlds is a journalist on the trail of stories that grow darker by the day: a rock star wannabe who may or may not be who he says he is, a guitar player who will do anything to succeed, crossing the line between reality and fantasy.Then comes beautiful Iris, distant Brenna, ambivalent Blair, Lana the singer - taking their chances, losing their way, doing whatever it takes Set in the glory days when the music business was a vast and amoral empire where stardom seemed arbitrary and sex, drugs and rock n roll were the lifestyle of choice, My Life and the Beautiful Music blurs memoir, myth and reality to recreate the last, lost era of a now-vanished world.
