spanned over fifty years, touring and recording albums with stars such
as Elton John, Cat Stevens, Family, Willie Nelson, Steve Harley and
Cockney Rebel, Joe Cocker, The Gypsy Kings, and Katie Melua, among many
others. However, he is perhaps best known for his forty-year association
with Rod Stewart, not only as his guitarist but also as best friends and
godfathers to each other's children.In his autobiography Jim Cregan
lifts the lid on his extraordinary life, recounting his experiences with
music's biggest stars, from his first band at the age of 14 playing in
youth clubs in Poole to performing in front of 350,000 people in Rio de
Janeiro. In And on Guitar . . . nothing is held back: Cregan's early
life and anecdotes about his family, shenanigans on the road,
extraordinary tales of hedonism, love and loss, his stories feature a
Who's Who of music's biggest stars.
