This was truly a great read. No, I stand corrected- it was an excellent read! Perhaps, this was said because I'm partial to the love I have for them both (Sonny & Cher). I have so much admiration for the talents they shared with us all during their long running TV careers (entertaining us with the Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour) and even afterwards. Back in the day; don't believe I ever missed watching their performances - from their first debut in 1971 till their final episode in 1974. Even after their marriage faltered, the two were still champions. And their actions were evidence of this: Cher with her booming movie career, and Sonny with his rising political career.
Sonny's honesty in presenting this story made it all enjoyable to read. I've read several memoirs and this one gets a "thumbs up" - in my book. Whether it made the author look bad or good, he told it like it was. And that said a lot for his writing presentation. The manner in which he shared his story made it easy to follow and visualize at each occurrence. At varies points, I felt as if I was there in time. This story will bring joy; laughter; sorrow; and perhaps a tear or two in some places of the read.
While reading the story, it gave a great deal of insight into their lives. Thanks to Sonny's openness, as a reader, I had an opportunity to step into their journey. Sonny does an outstanding job of exposing the before; the during; and the after scenes (i.e., "the getting to know us ones'"). Throughout my life, I've followed their actions and only knew what the tabloids or media wanted us to know. But, to go inside their life and get the scoop straight from the source made a big difference! Another one of his many talents (as "The Writer") shines through this story. Yes, "And The Beat Does Goes On, and on and on." Kudos to the author!
Although it's not written, I can truly say that we loss a great person full of talent, ambition, and life - as a result of his tragic accident in 1998. ( )
