Product Description:
Yanni is practically a force of nature. With global sales of over 20 million albums, 35 gold and platinum awards, and a fan base of untold millions in nearly every corner of the world, this self-taught musician and composer has achieved a cult-like following. The Washington Post has called Yanni's career 'a miracle, a lesson in pluck that could be taught in business school, preached from pulpits and woven into bedtime stories.' In this long-awaited memoir, Yanni offers an inside look at his fascinating journey, from his boyhood in Greece, where he taught himself to play piano at the age of six, to his current status as a musical star. His path to success was sometimes rocky. With unprecedented candor, Yanni describes his long struggle to separate himself from the 'New Age' label, his ongoing battles with a music industry bewildered by his work, and the depression that threatened to derail his career. With great affection, he also discusses his long relationship with Linda Evans and shares the lessons about love and truth that he's learned from his father along the way.

- I enjoyed it......
I am a fan of Yanni's and this book was great. I felt Yanni was talking directly to me. It held my attention and I loved reading about his childhood and his life philosophy. He admits his shortcomings but is also very inspirational. I was intrigued by his descriptions of how he goes into a 'zone' when creating his music where he is able to step outside of it during creation and not judge it until way after it is completed. His mother's spirituality and her prayer power was also motivating. I can't wait to go back now and re-watch my Acropolis video now that I know all he went thru to get there. Thanks for providing such lovely music, Yanni. You are living proof that you can truly do whatever you put your mind to.

- Interesting
If you're a Yanni fan, you will like this book.

It's self serving at times, but for the most part, it offers intriguing insight into the life of this performer.

Oh, and Yanni definitely wants you to know that he used to get laid a lot.
