“This is not my autobiography, although it does have some memoir type material and stories. This book is about staying curious and creative”: that’s how Michael Shrieve describes a book he first issued electronically and, just recently, as a physical volume, in paperback and hardcover variants. But of course, the great drummer put a lot of stories into it, as befits a musician who played at Woodstock with SANTANA and made “Abraxas” so special, recorded "Go Too" with Stomu Yamashta, and only recently delved into NOVO COMBO archives to remind the public he navigated new wave waters with equal elegance.
Invisible Rhythms
Titled “Invisible Rhythms” and numbering 170 pages, the book is, as its author says, “a guide for anyone who feels wired differently – the musicians, entrepreneurs, and creators who hear frequencies others miss. It’s about recognizing the signal before you can explain it” – so the anecdotes Shrieve inserted into his narrative serve to illustrate the veteran’s riveting journey through life. There’s a certain groove to Michael’s account of things past and present, so the slim tome must be a great read.
