The One Minute Music Book Club: Giant Steps by Derek Shulman

Derek Shulman had a good ten-year run (1970-80) as a member of Gentle Giant, the English prog group. After that ended, he transitioned into the roll of music executive, signing some of the biggest names in rock (Bon Jovi, Nickelback, Slipknot, and a ton more).

He now has this memoir entitled Giant Steps: My Improbable Journey from Stage Lights to Executive Heights. Fabulous behind-the-curtain stuff.
