NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “Cameron has written a book that feels like music, an intimate souvenir, like a song you can’t stop listening to.” —Stevie Nicks • “A delicious tale of a devotee who worships at the altar of rock and roll….It’s a love letter to fandom, sealed with Cameron’s trademark sincerity and heart.” —Maggie Rogers • “Such a joy and so well written…My favorite book in a long, long time.” —Anderson Cooper

The long-awaited memoir by Cameron Crowe—one of America’s most iconic journalists and filmmakers—The Uncool is a joyful dispatch from a lost world, a chronicle of the real-life events that became Almost Famous, and a coming-of-age journey filled with music legends as you’ve never seen them before.

    An absolute marvelous musical
    Journey but also a journey into a

    Great stories from an incredibly interesting and blessed life. Crowe provides plenty of details about interviews with some of the all time great rock stars, but left me wondering about some of the particulars of his personal life, especially his relationship with his sister Cindy, which seemed to go off the rails at some point without any explanation.
  • Great read.

    I stumbled upon this memoir somehow in my nightly “can’t sleep” ritual of reading books between 3 and 6 am. I’m so glad I did. I found myself smiling as I read about Cameron Crowe’s adventures in the world of rock and roll with these incredible, flawed and daring culture-shifting artists. Crowe’s love of family and music as a medium for community is palpable in his reflections. Only took a handful of sleepless nights to read, I became fully engrossed in his adventures.
  • Hoping for more

    Cameron Crowe has had such big, successful career, I guess I was hoping for more. What? No mention of “Singles”? That this book clocks in at around 220 pages should have been the first tip off.

  • A Wonderful Ride

    Everything that I would expect and want from the director of Almost Famous… I was taken on a journey that was familiar and yet new, with a companion that knows how to highlight and color what we are experiencing.

    In tapping into his memories, many of mine resurfaced, but I can now see them with the same touch of whimsy and wonder that he shares with us. I enjoyed the ride.
