Reviews
"Peter is a terrific writer. It's great to get his unique take being around some of the most fascinating music and cultural figures of our time. I especially love his recounting his time with Muddy Waters, John Lee and Van Morrison. Captures them as only an insider with soul could. Love his book as much as I love his music...Couldn't put it down!"-- Bonnie Raitt, " Waiting on the Moon is a five-star memoir, and Peter Wolf is a solid gold storyteller. His eye for detail is exquisite, I felt like I was living these stories alongside him. A rarity in a rock star memoir, Wolf does not center himself, he lets the players in his extraordinary life take centerstage and shine. I loved every single minute."-- Lisa Jewell, #1 New York Times bestselling author of None of This Is True, "Wolf has written the kind of memoir you wish everyone who was ever tempted to write one would--keeping only the great stories and leaving out all the dull stuff in between. These memorable vignettes are really prose poems...This is a beautifully written, funny, very wise, and very moving true-life advent."-- Lloyd Schwartz, poet and Pulitzer Prize-winning critic, "Arriving home from my 114th tour date, Peter's book has kept me wonderful company. As the eastern sun rises through my airplane window, the warmth of its rays reminds me of the love of life and living so beautifully expressed in his writing."-- Bruce Springsteen, "This is the book I've been hoping Peter would write since we walked the streets of Paris together, back in the 20th Century. A true account of his life, love and music told with unique humor and rare humility."-- Elvis Costello, "Sometime back Pete gave me a biography of the painter Chaim Soutine said he was the Jimmy Reed of the art world but I already knew that. Soutine is nowhere in this memoir nor is Jimmy Reed but there's plenty of other folks who are. This book reads like a fast train and you'll get a glimpse of everyone passing by through the windows. Characters that have crossed Pete's path who he's known up close and personal. A diverse crowd, one you wouldn't think belong in the same book: Marilyn Monroe with a scarf on her head sitting next to him in a movie theater, Muddy Waters, Faye Dunaway, David Lynch the filmmaker, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jagger -- Tennessee Williams, Merle Haggard. They all play an important part in Pete's life, come alive in more ways than one. As you'll see Pete's been on quite a journey. But before it all began, he had hopes to become a great painter, but then out of nowhere early on he went in another direction and never came back. This memoir has been a long time coming and it's Pete's great painting."-- Bob Dylan, "Elegant, eloquent vignettes from a star-studded life . . . Recollections of a rock 'n' roll life, charmingly related." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), " Waiting on the Moon is the page-turner of the decade. It's as if my three favorite memoirs-- The Kid Stays in the Picture, Running With Scissors , and Permanent Midnight --all got together and made a big, healthy, hilariously fucked-up kid who somehow managed to outdo them all."-- Peter Farrelly, Academy Award winning director and writer, "Nobody, and I mean nobody, has had more close encounters with interesting people than Pete. As if being in one of the most exciting rock 'n' roll bands in history wasn't enough? Who else gets driven home by Peter Sellers? Has Muddy Waters sleep on his floor? Has Alfred Hitchcock trying to get him drunk? Has Bob Dylan give him his pants? And commiserates on the subject of love with Tennessee Williams? You want to read this book."-- Steven Van Zandt

Synopsis
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER In the tradition of classic collections of observations and musings such as Christopher Isherwood's I Am a Camera and Truman Capote's The Dogs Bark , Waiting on the Moon is a treasure trove of vignettes from a legendary musical figure whose career spans more than six decades and is still going strong. Peter Wolf grew up in the Bronx, a child of "fellow travelers" whose artistic inclinations influenced both his love of music and his initial desire to become a painter. Stories of his loving and sometimes eccentric parents complement scenes depicting a very young Bob Dylan as he arrived on the Greenwich Village folk scene. Reflections on Wolf's studies in Boston--where he shared an apartment with David Lynch--are braided with accounts of first love, an untraditional literary education, and early musical influences such as Muddy Waters. After Wolf joined the J. Geils Band as their front man and his musical fame grew, he rubbed shoulders with other notables who left significant impressions on him, including members of the Rolling Stones, Sly Stone, Tennessee Williams, Alfred Hitchcock, and Van Morrison. Wolf's marriage to Faye Dunaway is presented in a clear yet balanced and nuanced light. Told with gentle humor and often heart-rending poignancy, the word portraits in Waiting on the Moon provide a revealing glimpse of artists, writers, actors, and musicians as they work--the creative forces that drive them to achievement; the demons they battle; the patterns of their human relationships. They are meant to inspire not only empathy but also admiration. Like Isherwood, Wolf remains "a camera with its shutter open."
