Former GUNS N’ ROSES Manager ALAN NIVEN To Publish New Book Sound N’ Fury: Rock N’ Roll Stories

Архив новостей | Русская версия

Alan Niven – who managed Guns N’ Roses from 1986 to 1991, and also served as manager for Great White – has announced details of his new book.

ECW Press will publish Sound N’ Fury: Rock N’ Roll Stories on June 24, 2025. The official description of this 240-page paperback reads as follows. Pre-orders can be placed now at this location.

Most rock ’n’ roll books are a bore. They all have the same narrative arc and are aimed at the dwindling following that now follows an artist that has long passed their AARP date.

Sound N’ Fury does not have a story arc. It is a collection of anecdotes, like a record comprised of various tracks — each one has its point and purpose. Alan Niven, who guided Guns N’ Roses from the gutter of Los Angeles to Wembley Stadium, shares stories from his remarkable life as a manager with an immediacy delivered by an extraordinary recall of dialogue. Readers will encounter not just Guns N’ Roses (who have sold almost 10 million tickets to their shows) but The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Clarence Clemons, Whitesnake, Elton John, and others who came from humble origins and experienced fame known only to few. Small-town minds collided with worldwide adulation, expectations, and demands. The results are amusing, affirming, and, predictably, disastrous. Keep in mind that rock ’n’ roll is God’s occupation for the unemployable.

Written with a crisp and fluid style, the magnificence and idiocy of the music world will dance off the pages and engross even those who are not rock fans.
