"What a book! The Neville Brothers tell their personal stories - and the story of New Orleans blues, funk, and jazz - with amazing candour and burning passion. The Brothers is an American classic, warm and funny and loaded with living history. Four fascinating tales, one great musical family. I loved it." - B. B. King "The fates of the Neville Brothers have been - and always will be - intricately linked. As a band, their collective identity is far greater than the sum of its parts. The same is true of their individual life stories: taken together, the result is a full-blown epic whose soundtrack reflects much of the history of American popular music in the second half of the twentieth century." - From the Introduction to The Brothers
