Sorry, this will be kind of long:-(Okay, so let me start by saying that growing up, I was the BIGGEST Sheila E. fan! Anyone in my family could tell you this. We're talking posters, every magazine she was in, every tv program I knew she would be on, I was there; saw Krush Groove a million times and knew all the lines (my family hated me:-)) I had no idea why, that's the thing. I mean, with the exception of Glamorous Life (which I love) I wasn't even a big fan of her music (but I bought it because it was her). But it was something about when I saw the video for GL and saw that the woman singing it was playing the drums, I was in awe. Fast forward twenty something years later, I found out that Sheila and her family were having this big show in Oakland to celebrate her parents' 50th (I think) wedding anniversary. I took the money I'd been saving for something else and bought a ticket to the show, a rt plane ticket from NY and booked a hotel & rented a car. I was going! By myself!!On the night of the event, I had a brief encounter with my idol when she walked past me. She was pleasant, but I couldn't wait till after the performance to hopefully get a picture with her. The show was great, she and her family were amazing! I decided to take a taxi to the event to avoid parking, so while I was waiting for the taxi to pick me up, I struck a conversation with two local women. They were amazed that I'd flown all the way there for this experience and were sad for me that I didn't really get to tell Sheila how big a fan I was and get a picture with her. Well, my taxi was late and Sheila's manager walked out and after the ladies asked on my behalf if I could meet Sheila, she said Sheila had gone home. I was disappointed, but oh well. A few minutes later, an angel walked out. It was Sheila's mother! The ladies asked to take a picture with her and then one of them pointed to me and told her my story. She was SHOCKED that I'd flown all the way from NY to see her daughter! She grabbed my hand and pulled me back into the ballroom and up to the VIP area to meet Sheila! I met her father first. He was suprised too that I had made that trip and appreciative. He signed my book and kissed me on the cheek. I was then taken to upstairs to Sheila and her mother called her over. Sheila signed my book and posed for a picture that her mother took. It all felt exactly the way it was, which was: "I'm tired, don't feel like taking this picture, but I will. Thanks a lot mom." (The picture was a Kool Aid smiling me with a barely smiling Sheila). I knew she was tired and rightly so. The woman is human. But right then at that moment, my feeelings had changed and I was disappointed. I thanked Sheila, turned to her mother, beaming and on the brink of tears, thanked her. I was so grateful. She gave me a sincere hug. When I walked away, she called me back by my name. When I turned around, she was handing me a bouquet of mini white roses from the event. I fell in love with her mother that night. What an amazing woman and everything Sheila described in her book.Oh, the book!When I found out she had a book, I felt that even though I wasn't really a fan anymore, I'd invested so much time and so many years being one, that I felt I had to read it. I'm glad I did!After reading the book, which is a well-written, sometimes funny good read, I learned that Sheila and I had a LOT in common, so many things, both, fortunate and unfortunate; we even lived on the same street as kids, she in Oakland, me in NY. Most important of all, I got some insight into who Sheila is. The woman is human, that's all. I got the feeling that she doesn't view her celebrity status the way most people view celebrities. She didn't get into the game to become a "star". She just loves music and her family. When I met her that night, I had met a woman who was celebrating her family and who had just worn herself out doing what she loved. I'm happy to say I'm a fan again and I wish Sheila and her family the best:-)

As a long time fan (since The Glamorous Life era), I was excited to purchase this and get some more insight into Sheila E's life and creative process. It's a very easy, fast read, although the writing is a bit amateurish as you'd expect from an autobiography (but this one has a co-author!). If you are exclusively looking for details on her professional and personal relationship with Prince, it's not worth the money (very little new info revealed here), but there are some interesting tidbits: her playing on MJ's "Don't stop til you get enough"; her romantic relationship with Carlos Santana; a bit of info on how her niece, Nicole, came to be adopted by Lionel Richie and his then wife; the physical toll her playing had on her in the late '80's. All in all, a good overview of the life and talent of this amazing percussionist/performer.

Poignant, well-written and fascinating memoir by the renowned Latina percussionist as she recounts her childhood attraction to drumming, her devoted, loving family's long involvement with music, and in particular, her musician-mentor father, Pete. Much takes place amidst the challenging financial and social landscape for her family, particularly in the 1970's as she was coming of age in California's Bay Area. She also recounts the terrible trauma of surviving childhood sexual abuse by a babysitter, making some of this painful to read. Of course she covers her long association with Prince and her evolving relationship with the iconic artist over their nearly 40-year friendship before his death last year. A fascinating story even without the Prince chapters. She skillfully documents her years with him as friend, lover and musical collaborator, but did not make that the focus of the book, which I respect. After all, E. was a drumming star on her own long before the two met, having worked with Marvin Gaye, Lionel Ritchie, and Carlos Santana, among many others.

I've never been a fan of '80's "glitzy pop" so I wasn't going to read this as I associate SE with that genre. But I was interested in reading the book due to her family DNA in the latin-rock (i don't like the term) music world. I found her autobiography interesting and revealing. It's sad to know that she had to encounter a very serious and traumatic experience in her early childhood and her struggles with it. But through her own personal strength she was able to over come and lead a strong and productive life in the world of music. To my surprise she describes her personal involvement with Carlos Santana. I wonder if he minded this? I recommend this memoir.

I have loved Sheila and her talent forever! This book has inspired me in so many ways, to listen to her music_ old and new! And to revisit those videos I loved from back in the day. I read this book as I am trying to recover from very difficult and painful surgery (at the age of 65...) . There is so much work for me to do to recover and a couple of days ago I felt like giving up. After reading Sheila's story_ even though our situations are quite different_ I am inspired to not ever give up, to trust in God and my partner and family to get through this_ and my love of music to push harder "and use the beat" when I think I cannot do any more!! I am now an even bigger fan! Thank you, Sheila, for sharing your story, your struggles and your honesty and faith .with someone who really needed to read this. I am a huge believer in the healing of music. AEH
