Dancing Barefoot: The Patti Smith Story

Dancing Barefoot: The Patti Smith Story

Offering a unique analysis and discussion of her life, career, and work, this is the true story of Patti Smith. Widely acknowledged as one of the most significant American artists of the rock age, an acclaimed poet, and a figurehead for many liberal political causes, Patti Smith went from an ugly-duckling childhood in postwar New Jersey to become queen of the 1970s New York art scene. Not a tell-all biography, this measured, accurate, and enthusiastic account of Smithâ€™s career is written for her loyal fans as well as for neophytes hungry for a great rock 'n' roll story. Guided by interviews with those who have known herâ€”including Ivan Kral, Tom Verlaine, Richard Lloyd, John Cale, and Jim Carrollâ€”it relies most of all on Pattiâ€™s own words.
