With his recognizable gravelly voice, the Hootie and the Blowfish singer delivers his heartfelt memoir with genuine gusto. He narrates clearly and naturally, always sounding engaged with the considerable pathos of his personal life and career in music: his substance abuse, early career playing at frat parties and dive bars, and eventual status as a solo country music star. What also makes this audiobook special is what we learn about Rucker's family, his personal challenges, and his devotion to his art. He was all in from an early age, putting to work his ear for the musical hook and gift for the storyline that grabs people's hearts. LIFE'S TOO SHORT is also a fascinating insider's view of the effort and sacrifices needed for musicians to chase the uncertain prize of commercial success.
