 One Step Up from Tabloid Trash July 14, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is nothing but gossip, innuendos and plagiarism from a much better biography about Patsy Cline. The author seems to imply that Patsy Cline was a slut and a lesbian, who supposedly slept her way to the top. HELLO? Did she ever listen to any of Patsy Cline's songs? Patsy Cline was, is and will always be, the best female singer, ever! Patsy Cline was talent with a capital "t" and capitals "a,l,e,n" and another "t" for that matter! Don't waste your money, like I did, buying this trash. I, myself, wouldn't even dare to subject anybody else to this book, by trying to resell or give it away!
 Patsy lives on...! February 10, 2008
This biography on one-in-a-million country singer Patsy Cline is very informative, not just about Patsy herself, but also about the recording industry in the 1950's and -60's. For some, this may feel like unnecessary information, but being a musician myself, I find it fascinating to learn more about how the industry has developed through the past decades.
I truly recommend this book, especially for those who, like me, love that glorious voice behind timeless hits like "Crazy", "Walking After Midnight" and "Sweet Dreams".

In the description of this book it states that Patsy died in a car accident but that isn't true. She died in a plane crash on March 5, 1963 in Camden, TN. Makes me wonder what else in this book isn't accurate.

If you want a biography of Patsy Cline, save your money and do not buy this book. You will be much happier with Patsy Cline: Honky Tonk Angel by Ellis Nassour. This author adds nothing to Patsy's story but a lot of boring dribble.

I really enjoyed reading this book. If you are a true Patsy Cline fan you would like this book. People who knew Patsy shared some stories and the way Patsy really was. It also shares some of Patsy's ancestors history and the way things were back then and so on. I thought this was a very good book.
