When superstar Rick James passed away in 2004, an autobiography was rushed out to the public. But biographer David Ritz was never satisfied with that edition, and many years later releaed this definitivie edition, GLOW: The Autobiography of Rick James.
Cobbled together from numerous letters and diary entries that James had written in prison and after, mixed with stories told by Ritz in James' voice, GLOW tells the story of an impulsive musical prodigy who witnessed the highest of highs and the lowest of lows.
We listened to the entirety of James' discography while reading this book, and paired wines we think are perfect to match the book AND James' music!
